find the probabilities Use a calculator and the Ztable in yo
Solution
9.
We first get the z score for the critical value. As z = (x - u) / s, then as
x = critical value = 435.77
u = mean = 337
s = standard deviation = 83
Thus,
z = (x - u) / s = 1.19
Thus, using a table/technology, the left tailed area of this is
P(z < 1.19 ) = 0.882976804 [ANSWER]

We first get the z score for the critical value. As z = (x - u) / s, then as
x = critical value = 435.77
u = mean = 337
s = standard deviation = 83
Thus,
z = (x - u) / s = 1.19
Thus, using a table/technology, the right tailed area of this is
P(z > 1.19 ) = 0.117023196 [ANSWER]

We first get the z score for the critical value. As z = (x - u) / s, then as
x = critical value = 238.23
u = mean = 337
s = standard deviation = 83
Thus,
z = (x - u) / s = -1.19
Thus, using a table/technology, the left tailed area of this is
P(z < -1.19 ) = 0.117023196 [ANSWER]

We first get the z score for the two values. As z = (x - u) / s, then as
x1 = lower bound = 124.52
x2 = upper bound = 549.48
u = mean = 337
s = standard deviation = 83
Thus, the two z scores are
z1 = lower z score = (x1 - u)/s = -2.56
z2 = upper z score = (x2 - u) / s = 2.56
Using table/technology, the left tailed areas between these z scores is
P(z < z1) = 0.005233608
P(z < z2) = 0.994766392
Thus, the area between them, by subtracting these areas, is
P(z1 < z < z2) = 0.989532784 [ANSWER]
