Question
If X is a normal random variable with mean 60, and a standard deviation of 2, find:
A: P (X<58)
B: P(X>63)
C: P(57<X<64)
A: P (X<58)
B: P(X>63)
C: P(57<X<64)
Answers
Calculate Z scores for the various values.
Z = (X - μ )/SD
Look up Z scores in table in the back of your statistics book labeled something like "areas under normal distribution" to find the probabilities.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
