Normal Distribution Prob
1. Given $X \sim N(44, 1^2)$, find the probabilities:
1.1 Calculate $P(X \leq 44.4)$:
- Mean $\mu = 44$, standard deviation $\sigma=1$.
- Find z-score: $z = \frac{44.4-44}{1} = 0.4$.
- Look up $P(Z \leq 0.4)$ in standard normal table or use a calculator:
$P(Z \leq 0.4) \approx 0.6554$.
1.2 Calculate $P(X > 45.2)$:
- $z = \frac{45.2 - 44}{1} = 1.2$.
- Find $P(Z > 1.2) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.2) \approx 1 - 0.8849 = 0.1151$.
1.3 Calculate $P(X > 41.5)$:
- $z = \frac{41.5 - 44}{1} = -2.5$.
- $P(X > 41.5) = P(Z > -2.5) = 1 - P(Z \leq -2.5)$.
- From tables, $P(Z \leq -2.5) \approx 0.0062$.
- So $P(X > 41.5) = 1 - 0.0062 = 0.9938$.
1.4 Calculate $P(X < 43.2)$:
- $z = \frac{43.2 - 44}{1} = -0.8$.
- $P(X < 43.2) = P(Z < -0.8) \approx 0.2119$.
2. Given $X \sim N(69, 15^2)$, find the probabilities:
2.1 Calculate $P(X \leq 78)$:
- $z = \frac{78 - 69}{15} = 0.6$.
- $P(Z \leq 0.6) \approx 0.7257$.
2.2 Calculate $P(X \leq 49.5)$:
- $z = \frac{49.5 - 69}{15} = -1.3$.
- $P(Z \leq -1.3) \approx 0.0968$.
2.3 Calculate $P(X > 70.5)$:
- $z = \frac{70.5 - 69}{15} = 0.1$.
- $P(Z > 0.1) = 1 - P(Z \leq 0.1) = 1 - 0.5398 = 0.4602$.
2.4 Calculate $P(55.5 < X < 73.5)$:
- Convert to z-scores:
$z_1 = \frac{55.5 - 69}{15} = -0.9$, $z_2 = \frac{73.5 - 69}{15} = 0.3$.
- $P(55.5 < X < 73.5) = P(-0.9 < Z < 0.3) = P(Z < 0.3) - P(Z < -0.9)$.
- From tables, $P(Z < 0.3) \approx 0.6179$, $P(Z < -0.9) \approx 0.1841$.
- So, $0.6179 - 0.1841 = 0.4338$.
Final answers:
$P(X \leq 44.4) \approx 0.6554$
$P(X > 45.2) \approx 0.1151$
$P(X > 41.5) \approx 0.9938$
$P(X < 43.2) \approx 0.2119$
$P(X \leq 78) \approx 0.7257$
$P(X \leq 49.5) \approx 0.0968$
$P(X > 70.5) \approx 0.4602$
$P(55.5 < X < 73.5) \approx 0.4338$
