Suppose that the distribution of IQ's of North Catalina State University's students can be approximated by a normal model with m

ean 130 and standard deviation 8 points. Also suppose that the distribution of IQ's of Chapel Mountain University's students can be approximated by a normal model with mean 120 and standard deviation 10 points. Question 1. You select a student at random from each school. Determine the probability that the North Catalina State University student's IQ is at least 5 points higher than the Chapel Mountain University student's IQ.

Answer:

The required probability is 0.6517

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

North Catalina State University's students can be approximated by a normal model with mean 130 and standard deviation 8 points.

μ₁ = 130 and σ₁ = 8

Chapel Mountain University's students can be approximated by a normal model with mean 120 and standard deviation 10 points.

μ₂ = 120 and σ₂ = 10

As both schools have IQ scores which is normally distributed, distribution of this difference will also be normal with a mean of μ₁-μ₂ and standard deviation will be \sqrt{\sigma_1^2+\sigma_2^2}

Therefore,

μ = 130-120=10

\sigma = \sqrt{8^2+10^2}=12.806

Now determine the probability of North Catalina State University student's IQ is at least 5 points higher than the Chapel Mountain University student's IQ:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma}

z=\frac{5-10}{12.806}\approx-0.39

Now by using the z table we find the z- score of -0.39 is 0.6517.

Hence, the required probability is 0.6517

I need the answer to a parts I-iii and the answer to b
fomenos

Answer:

a)

i) Mean = 72

ii) Median = 72

iii) Mode = 72

b)

69, 70, 71, 72, 72, 72, 73, 74, 75

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>a. To find mean, median and mode</u>

It is given that all the 9 students get 72 marks.

Therefore the data set be,

72, 72, 72, 72, 72, 72, 72, 72 72

<u>i) mean </u>= (sum of data)/(total number of data)

 = (9 * 72)/9 = 9

<u>ii) Median </u>- Central data in the data set when arranging ascending or descending order

72, 72, 72, 72, 72, 72, 72, 72 72

Median = 72

<u>iii) Mode </u>- Most repeating data in the data set

Here mode = 72

<u>b). To find a data set</u>

69, 70, 71, 72, 72, 72, 73, 74, 75

Here Mean, mode and median are all 72
