Assume that scores on the verbal portion of the GRE (Graduate Record Exam) follow the normal distribution with mean score 151 and standard deviation 7 points, while the quantitative portion of the exam has scores following the normal distribution with mean 153 and standard deviation 7.67. Use this information to answer the following: (Please round to two decimal places) a) Find the score of a student who scored in the 80th percentile on the Quantitative Reasoning section of the exam....

Scores on the verbal Graduate Record Exam (GRE) have a mean of
453 and a standard deviation of 122. Scores on the quantitative GRE
have a mean of 651 and a standard deviation of 157. A perfect score
on either exam is 800. Assuming the scores are normally
distributed, what percentage of students score 800 on the
quantitative exam?
The percentage of students that score 800 on the quantitative
exam is approximately _% (Round to the nearest percent as
needed.)...

(13 points) Scores on the GRE. A college senior who took the Graduate Record Examination exam scored 620 on the Verbal Reasoning section and 750 on the Quantitative Reasoning section. The mean score for Verbal Reasoning section was 467 with a standard deviation of 109, and the mean score for the Quantitative Reasoning was 441 with a standard deviation of 155. Suppose that both distributions are nearly normal. Round calculated answers to 4 decimal places unless directed otherwise. 1. Write...

1. Suppose the proportion of the population in favor of a new law is 0.60. (a) Suppose you take a sample of size n = 500. What is the probability that your sample proportion is 0.55 or lower? (b) Suppose that you take a sample of size n = 400 and find the sample proportion ˆp = 0.70. How many standard deviations is ˆp from the mean of the distribution of all sample proportions? 2. A college senior who took...
