Assume you have a normal distribution representing the likelihood of project completion times. The mean of this distribution is 14, and the standard deviation is 4. The probability of completing the project in 15 or fewer days is:
a. 0.59
b. 0.27
c. 0.93
d. 0.75
X =15
Mean=14
Standard Deviation=4
Z=(X-Mean)/Standard Deviation
Z=(15-14)/4
Z=0.25
Considering the Z table, probability of completing the project in 15 or fewer days =59.87%
Hence, correct answer is 0.59

Students in Alice’s course have lap times that have an approximately normal distributionwith mean 76 seconds and standard deviation of 4 seconds. Students in Bob’s coursehave lap times that have an approximately normal distribution with mean 74 secondsand standard deviation of 3 seconds. Assume lap times for all students are independent of one another. (a) Approximate the probability that the mean lap time in Alice’s class of size 36 students exceeds 77. (b) Compute the probability that a random student...

The length of time a bat stays in a cave has a normal distribution with ? = 95 days and a standard deviation of ?=5.7 days. Suppose that we measure 445 different bats for time in a cave. Let X be the random variable representing the mean number of days and let Xtot be the random variable representing the sum of the days in a cave of the 445 examined bats. a) About what proportion of bats stay between 90...
