Problem 1

State the properties of the standard normal curve.

Problem 1

Explain why normal probability plots should be linear if the data are normally distributed.

Problem 2

Under what circumstances can the normal distribution be used to approximate binomial probabilities?

Problem 7

Find the indicated areas. For each problem, be sure to draw a standard normal curve and shade the area that is to be found. Determine the area under the standard normal curve that lies to the right of (a) \(Z=-3.01\) (b) \(Z=-1.59\) (c) \(Z=1.78\) (d) \(Z=3.11\)

Problem 7

Assume the random variable \(X\) is normally distributed with mean \(\mu=50\) and standard deviation \(\sigma=7 .\) Compute the following probabilities. Be sure to draw a normal curve with the area corresponding to the probability shaded. $$P(40

Problem 9

Assume the random variable \(X\) is normally distributed with mean \(\mu=50\) and standard deviation \(\sigma=7 .\) Compute the following probabilities. Be sure to draw a normal curve with the area corresponding to the probability shaded. $$P(55 \leq X \leq 70)$$

Problem 9

Find the indicated areas. For each problem, be sure to draw a standard normal curve and shade the area that is to be found. Determine the area under the standard normal curve that lies between (a) \(Z=-2.04\) and \(Z=2.04\) (b) \(Z=-0.55\) and \(Z=0\) (c) \(Z=-1.04\) and \(Z=2.76\)

Problem 10

Assume the random variable \(X\) is normally distributed with mean \(\mu=50\) and standard deviation \(\sigma=7 .\) Compute the following probabilities. Be sure to draw a normal curve with the area corresponding to the probability shaded. $$P(40 \leq X \leq 49)$$

Problem 11

Find the indicated areas. For each problem, be sure to draw a standard normal curve and shade the area that is to be found. Determine the area under the standard normal curve (a) to the left of \(Z=-2\) or to the right of \(Z=2\) (b) to the left of \(Z=-1.56\) or to the right of \(Z=2.56\) (c) to the left of \(Z=-0.24\) or to the right of \(Z=1.20\)

Problem 12

Find the indicated areas. For each problem, be sure to draw a standard normal curve and shade the area that is to be found. Determine the area under the standard normal curve (a) to the left of \(Z=-2.94\) or to the right of \(Z=2.94\) (b) to the left of \(Z=-1.68\) or to the right of \(Z=3.05\) (c) to the left of \(Z=-0.88\) or to the right of \(Z=1.23\)
