The amount of rainfall in january in a certain city is normally distributed with a mean of 4.3 inches and a standard deviation o
f 0.3 inches. find the value of the quartile q1. 1.1 4.2 4.1 4.5
1 answer:
We start by showing the position of the first quartile, Q1 on the normal distribution graph. Q1 happens at 25% of the data.
The graph is shown below
We are interested in the area to the left of Q1 and we know that the probability is 0.25
We can find out the value of z-score from the table as shown below
The z-score when p=0.25 is 0.68
then changing this z-score into the actual value

The Taylor series is defined by:
Let a = 0.
Then its just a matter of finding derivatives and determining how many terms is needed for the series.
Derivatives can be found using product rule:
Do this successively to n = 6.
Plug in x=0 and sub into taylor series:
If more terms are needed simply continue the recursive derivative formula and add to taylor series.
