Find the area of the shaded region. The graph to the right depicts IQ scores of adults, and those scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. ( Shaded between 104 and 130)
Solution :
solution
Given that ,
mean = = 100
standard deviation = = 15
P(104< x < 130) = P[(104 -100) /15 < (x - ) / < (130-100) /15 )]
= P( 0.27< Z <2 )
= P(Z < 2) - P(Z < 0.27)
Using z table
= 0.9772 -0.6064
probability= 0.3708
