Let X be a normal random variable with a mean of 033 and a s
Let X be a normal random variable with a mean of 0.33 and a standard deviation of 2.69.
a)Calculate the corresponding standardized value (z) for the point x = 4.1. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
z =
b)The area under the standard normal probability density function from negative infinity to z is interpreted as the probability that the random variable is:
| less than or equal to z | |
| equal to z | |
| greater than or equal to z |
Solution
(a) Z=(X-mean)/s
=(4.1-0.33)/2.69
=1.40

(b) less than or equal to z
