μ = 178175.2P = ?

The heights of adult men are normally distributed with mean 178 cm and standard deviation 7 cm. What fraction is below 175.2 cm? Find P(X < x) as a decimal.

μ = 178σ = 7x = 175.2

765 kg783 kgT = X₁ + … + X₉?

The masses of passengers with luggage are independent and normal with mean 85 kg and standard deviation 12 kg. Find the probability P that the total mass of 9 of them exceeds 783 kg. Round z to two decimals.

μ = 85 kgσ = 12 kgn = 9> 783 kg

0.05 mm0D − d?

Hole diameters D are normal with mean 25.05 mm and standard deviation 0.02 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.
