for normal distribution z score =(X-μ)/σx | |
here mean= μ= | 3 |
std deviation =σ= | 0.7 |
a)
probability =P(X<2.3)=(Z<(2.3-3)/0.7)=P(Z<-1)=0.1587 |
b)
probability =P(X>4)=P(Z>(4-3)/0.7)=P(Z>1.43)=1-P(Z<1.43)=1-0.9236=0.0766 |
(please try 0.0764 if this comes wrong)
c)
P(at least one) =1-P(none) =1-(1-0.1587)*(1-0.1587)=0.2922
d)
for 20th percentile critical value of z= | -0.84 | ||
therefore corresponding value=mean+z*std deviation= | 2.4109 |
