95.5112.75P = ?

The IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 points and standard deviation 15 points. What fraction lies between 95.5 and 112.75 points? Give P as a decimal.

μ = 100σ = 15x1 = 95.5x2 = 112.75
P =

−3−2−10123zshaded area between −z and z = 0.8764

Drag z so that the shaded area between −z and z under the standard normal curve is 0.8764. Find z to two decimals.

A = 0.8764
z =
5.Hard
μ = 500x = ?99%

The battery lifetimes are normally distributed with mean 500 h and standard deviation 40 h. Find the value x below which 99% of them lie (the 99th percentile).

μ = 500σ = 40P = 99%
x = h
