A) The distribution of exam scores for Statistics is normally distributed with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 5.2. What is the z-score for a raw score of 85? Round to the nearest hundredth.
B) An Olympic archer is able to hit the bull’s eye 80% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. She will shoot 6 arrows. Let X denote the number of bull’s eyes she makes.
Find the standard deviation of the probability distribution of X. Round to the nearest hundredth.
C) An Olympic archer is able to hit the bull’s eye 80% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. She will shoot 6 arrows. Let X denote the number of bull’s eyes she makes.
What is the probability that she gets at least four bull’s eyes? Round to four decimal places.
Answer:
A)
= 78, = 5.2, x= 85
formula for z-score is
z = 1.346
z-score is = 1.35
B)
P= 80% = 0.8, n=6
formula for Standard deviation of binomial distribution is
= 0.9798
Standard deviation= 0.98
c)
we want to find P(x 4)
formula is
P(x) = nCx * Px * ( 1 - p )n-x
P(x 4) = P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)
P(x 4) = 6C4 * 0.84 * ( 1 -0.8)6-4 + 6C5 * 0.85 * ( 1 -0.8)6-5 + 6C6 * 0.86 * ( 1 -0.8)6-6
P(x 4) =0.2458 + 0.3932 + 0.2621
P(x 4) = 0.9011
Probability = 0.9011

An archer is able to hit the bull's-eye 32% of the time. If she shoots 9 arrows, what is the probability that she does not get exactly 4 bull's-eyes? Assume each shot is independent of the others. Express your answer as a percentage rounded to the nearest hundredth.
An Olympic archer is able to hit the bull's-eye 84% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. She shoots 6 arrows. a) How many bull's-eyes do you expect her to get? b) What is the standard deviation? c) If she keeps shooting arrows until she hits the bull's-eye, how long do you expect it will take?
An Olympic archer is able to hit the bull's-eye 89% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. She shoots 8 arrows. a) How many bull's-eyes do you expect her to get? b) What is the standard deviation? c) If she keeps shooting arrows until she hits the bull's-eye, how long do you expect it will take?
an archer is able to hit the bulls-eye 50% of the time. if she shoots 8 arrows, what is the probability that she gets exactly 4 bulls-eyes? Assume each shot is independent of the others.

Suppose that scores on a statistics exam are normally distributed with a mean of 77 and a standard deviation of 4. Find the probability of a student scoring less than 80 on the exam using the following steps. (a) What region of the normal distribution are you looking to find the area of? (to the left of a zscore, to the right of a z-score, between two z-scores, or to the left of one z-score and to the right of...
An Olympic archer misses the bull's eye 14% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. If she shoots 7 arrows, what is the probability of each of the results described in parts a through f below? c) Her first miss comes on the second or third arrow The probability is 0.2239 (Round to four decimal places as needed.) d) She misses the bull's-eye exactly 3 times. The probability is 0.0525. (Round to four decimal places as...
