**can you explain how to solve on calculator**
1. Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 96.9 and a standard deviation of 19.9.
Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 136.4
2. Find the area of the shaded region. The graph depicts the standard normal distribution of bone density scores with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. z= -.85, z= 1.26
3. 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. x=96
4. Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of μ=105 and a standard deviation σ=20. Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 91 and 119.
5. Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of μ=105 and a standard deviation σ=20.Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 133.
6. Assume that females have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of 75.0 beats per minute and a standard deviation of 12.5 beats per minute.
6a) If 1 adult female is randomly selected, find the probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.
6b) If 16 adult females are randomly selected, find the probability that they have pulse rates with a mean between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.
6c) Why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 30?
7. Find the area of the shaded region. The graph depicts the standard normal distribution of bone density scores with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. z= -.81
8. The standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is _____
1.
µ = 96.9, σ = 19.9
P(X > 136.4) =
= P( (X-µ)/σ > (136.4-96.9)/19.9)
= P(z > 1.9849)
= 1 - P(z < 1.9849)
Using excel function:
= 1 - NORM.S.DIST(1.9849, 1)
= 0.0236
---
2.
P(z < -0.85) =
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(-0.85, 1)
= 0.1977
P(z < 1.26) =
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(1.26, 1)
= 0.8962
---
3.
µ = 100, σ = 15
P(X = 96) =
= P( (X-µ)/σ = (96-100)/15 )
= P(z = -0.2667)
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(-0.2667, 1)
= 0.3949
---
4.
µ = 105, σ = 20
P(91 < X < 119) =
= P( (91-105)/20 < (X-µ)/σ < (119-105)/20 )
= P(-0.7 < z < 0.7)
= P(z < 0.7) - P(z < -0.7)
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(0.7, 1) - NORM.S.DIST(-0.7, 1)
= 0.5161
---
5.
µ = 105, σ = 20
P(X < 133) =
= P( (X-µ)/σ < (133-105)/20 )
= P(z < 1.4)
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(1.4, 1)
= 0.9192
---
6. a)
P(69 < X < 81) =
= P( (69-75)/12.5 < (X-µ)/σ < (81-75)/12.5 )
= P(-0.48 < z < 0.48)
= P(z < 0.48) - P(z < -0.48)
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(0.48, 1) - NORM.S.DIST(-0.48, 1)
= 0.3688
b)
µ = 75, σ = 12.5, n = 16
P(69 < X̅ < 81) =
= P( (69-75)/(12.5/√16) < (X-µ)/(σ/√n) < (81-75)/(12.5/√16) )
= P(-1.92 < z < 1.92)
= P(z < 1.92) - P(z < -1.92)
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(1.92, 1) - NORM.S.DIST(-1.92, 1)
= 0.9451
c) Because the population is normally distributed so the sample is also normally distributed.

7.
P(z < -0.81) =
Using excel function:
= NORM.S.DIST(-0.81, 1)
= 0.209
