z-Scores and Area under the Curve | |||||||
A researcher collected data on adults using an intelligence test. The data for these adults were approximately normally distributed with the following mean and standard deviation | mean = 9999 points | standard deviation = 1818 points | Use this information and the online normal distribution calculator to answer the questions below. Round your percents to two decimal places. | Note: Use z-scores rounded to 2 decimal places and the standard normal distribution to avoid roundoff errors. | |||

P(110<x<127) = P((121-99)/18)<z<(127-99)/18))
= 0.2115 = 21.15%
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
P((56.7>x) and (144.1<x)) = P((56.7-99)/18>z) + P((144.1-99)/18<z)
= 0.0155 = 1.55%
