Chapter 6: Q. 6.27 (page 260)

The area under a particular normal curve to the left of 105 is 0.6227. A normally distributed variable has the same mean and standard deviation as the parameters for this normal curve. What percentage of all possible observations of the variable lie to the Ieft of 105? Explain your answer.

Short Answer

Expert verified

62.27% of all possible observations of the variable lie to the Ieft of 105.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information.

The area under a particular normal curve to the left of 105 is 0.6227.

02

Step 2. Find the percentage.

A normally distributed variable has the same mean and standard deviation as the parameters for this normal curve.

For a normally distributed variable, the value of all possible observations that lie within any specified range equals the corresponding area under its associated normal curve expresssed as percentage.

So the percentage is62.27%

In the paper "Cloudiness: Note on a Novel Case of Frequency" (Procedings of the Royul Sociery of London, Vol. 62. pp.287-290), K. Pearson examined data on daily degree of cloudiness, on a scale of 0 to 10 , at Breslau (Wroclaw), Poland, during the decade 1876-1885. A frequency distribution of the data is presented in the following table.

a. Draw a frequency histogram of these degree-of-cloudiness data.

b. Based on your histogram, do you think that degree of cloudiness in Breslau during the decade in question is approximately normally distributed? Explain your answer.
