Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard normal distribution is represented by P(-zc < z < zc) = c

From this, you see that -zc is less than the variable of interest z and z is less than zc.

The equation simply means that the probability that -zc is less than z and z is less than zc, is c.

The value zc is NOT a value from the above distribution. All values in the distribution are of the variable z. For example, z might be equal to 1, z might be equal to 6, but the variable of interest in the distribution is z, not zc.

Scores on a certain intelligence test for children between ages 13 and 15 years are approximately normally distributed with μ=10

Tju [1.3M]

Answer: 0.8238

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Scores on a certain intelligence test for children between ages 13 and 15 years are approximately normally distributed with $\mu=106$ and $\sigma=15$ .

Let x denotes the scores on a certain intelligence test for children between ages 13 and 15 years.

Then, the proportion of children aged 13 to 15 years old have scores on this test above 92 will be :-

$P(x>92)=1-P(x\leq92)\\\\=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{92-106}{15})\\\\=1-P(z\leq })\\\\=1-P(z\leq-0.93)=1-(1-P(z\leq0.93))\ \ [\because\ P(Z\leq -z)=1-P(Z\leq z)]\\\\=P(z\leq0.93)=0.8238\ \ [\text{By using z-value table.}]$
