a) here as k score=(X-mean)/std deviation
therefore P(55<X<75)=P((55-65)/5<Z<(75-65)/5)=P(-2<Z<2) =95%
b)
P(60<X<70)=P((60-65)/5<Z<(70-65)/5)=P(-1<Z<1) =68.0%
(2 points) Suppose we have a normally-distributed population that has a mean of 65 and a...
Scores on a test are normally distributed with a mean of 70 and standard deviation of 10. Applying the Empirical Rule, we would expect the middle 95% of scores to fall between what two values? 40 and 100 50 and 90 55 and 85 60 and 80 65 and 75
A useful rule of thumb generally used when statistically treating known normally distributed data is the 68-95-99.7 rule. This rule stipulates that about 68% observations fall within __________ standard deviations, about 95% of observations fall within ________ standard deviations, and 99.7% of observations fall within __________ standard deviations.
A population is normally distributed with a mean of 55 and a standard deviation of 4. Using the Empirical Rule, approximately what percentage of data values fall between 51 and 59? Please show your calculations.
A sample of 29 observations selected from a normally distributed population gives a mean of 241 and a sample standard deviation of s=13.2. Create a 95% confidence interval for µ. Use a T-Interval and round all values to 2 decimal places. The 95% confidence interval runs from to .
10.1 A. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the following securities’ returns: Year Computroids Inc. Blazers Inc. 1 10% 5% 2 5% 6% 3 –3% 7% 4 12% 8% 5 10% 9% B. Assuming these observations are drawn from a normally distributed probability space, we know that about 68% of values drawn from a normal distribution are within one standard deviation away from the mean or expected return; about 95% of the values are within two standard deviations; and...
In a recently administered IQ test, the scores were distributed normally, with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. What proportion of the test takers scored between 70 and 130? A. About 68%; B. About 84% C. About 95% D. About 99.5%
Suppose a normally distributed set of data has a mean of 172 and a standard deviation of 15. Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to determine the percent of scores in the data set expected to be between the scores 142 and 187. Give your answer in decimal form and keep all decimal places throughout your calculations and in your final answer.
Scores on an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 9. Find the percent of the scores that satisfies the following: (a) Less than 54 (b) At least 80 (c) Between 70 and 86
The commute times for workers in a city are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. If a random sample of 37 workers is taken and results in a sample mean of 31 minutes and sample standard deviation of 5 minutes. Use Excel to find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution. Round the final answers to two decimal places.
Assume that a set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 110 and a standard deviation of 5. Use the 68-95-99-7 rule to find the following quantities.
