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 another z-score)
(b)Calculate the z-score(s) needed to find the probability
(c) Find probability P(X < 80)
thank you.

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...
Scores on a recent national statistics exam were normally distributed with a mean of 72 and a standard deviation of 10 . What is the probability that a randomly selected exam will have a score between 75 and 80 ?
Suppose the scores on a statistic exam are normally distributed with a mean of 77 and a variance of 25. What is the 25th percentile of the scores? What is the percentile of someone who got a score of 62? What proportion of the scores are between 80 and 90? Suppose you select 35 tests at random, what is the proportion of scores above 85?
Student scores on Professor Combs' Stats final exam are normally distributed with a mean of 72 and a standard deviation of 7.2 Find the probability of the following: (use 4 decimal places) a) The probability that one student chosen at random scores above an 77 b) The probability that 10 students chosen at random have a mean score above an 77 c) The probability that one student chosen at random scores between a 67 and an 77 d) The probability...
Juan took a Statistics exam and earned a 90%. If the exam scores are normally distributed with a mean = 75% and SD = 10%, what is Juan's z score? Based on his z score, what percentage of students scored below Juan? What is the probability of randomly selecting a student who scored below Juan?
Scores on a recent national statistics exam were normally distributed with a mean of 88 and a standard deviation of 2. 1. What is the probability that a randomly selected exam will have a score of at least 85? 2. What percentage of exams will have scores between 89 and 92? 3. If the top 5% of test scores receive merit awards, what is the lowest score eligible for an award? I do not understand how to compute probability.
