μ = 100122.5P = ?

The IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 points and standard deviation 15 points. What fraction is above 122.5 points? Find P(X > x) as a decimal.

μ = 100σ = 15x = 122.5
P(X > x) =

0.03 mm0D − d?

Hole diameters D are normal with mean 25.03 mm and standard deviation 0.015 mm. Shaft diameters d are independent and normal with mean 25 mm and standard deviation 0.02 mm. A randomly chosen shaft fits when D − d > 0. Find the probability P that it fits. Round z to two decimals.

6.Hard
μ = 100x = ?5%

The IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 points and standard deviation 15 points. Find the value x below which 5% of them lie (the 5th percentile).

μ = 100σ = 15P = 5%
x = points
