Computing Normal Probabilities with a Given Z Score
1. Given that z is a standard normal random variable,
compute the following probabilities.
a. p (z =
2.0)
b. p (z ?
1.4)
c. p (-1.0
< z < 0.5)
d. p (1.0
< z < 1.2)
2. The time needed to drive from city A to city B is
normally distributed with a mean of 180 minutes and standard deviation of 20
minutes.
a. What is
the probability that a person will drive from city A to city B in three hours
or more?
b. What is
the probability that a person will drive from city A to city B in more than 140
minutes?
c. What is
the probability that a person will drive from city A to city B in exactly three
hours?
d. What is the
probability that a person will drive from city A to city B in less than 2.5
hours?
