More Practice With Normal Distributions.
Assign your numbers for mean μ and standard deviation σ.
Then select a number "A" below mean μ, and a number "B" above mean
μ.
Use Appendix Table for the Normal Distribution to find
probability
that x is between A and B: P (A < x < B).
Here are steps to follow: convert A to z score (let's call it
za),
convert B to z score (let's call it zb).;
From Appendix table find area under curve to the left of za and to
the left of zb.
That will give you P (z < za) and P (z < zb).
If za or zb are not in the table, change your A or B.
Use formula: P (A < x < B) = P (za < z < zb) = P (z
< zb) - P (z < za)
Don't just assign numbers, make an example from real
situation
where this technique can be applied.Create your own scenario and
values.
