IQ is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Suppose one individual is randomly chosen. Find the probability that the person has an IQ less than 110. Include a sketch of the graph and shade the area to be determined.
Solution :
Given that ,
mean =
= 100
standard deviation =
= 15
P(x < 110) = P[(x -
) /
< (110 - 100) / 15]
= P(z < 0.6667)
= 0.7475
Probability = 0.7475
