Say she chooses topic A. She needs at least one book to arrive on time. The probability that no books arrive on time is 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01 so the probability that at least one book arrives on time is 1 - 0.01 = 0.99.
Say she chooses topic B. She needs at least two books to arrive on time. The probability of no books arriving on time is 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.0001. The probability of exactly one book arriving on time is 4 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.9 = 0.0036 (binomial probability distribution formula - the 4 comes from 4C1). So the probability of her not getting enough books is 0.0001 + 0.0036 = 0.0037 and the probability she does get the books she needs on time is 1 - 0.0037 = 0.9963.
So she should choose topic B.

IQ test scores are standardized to produce a normal distribution with a mean of = 100 and a standard deviation of = 15. Find the
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score = 135

μ is the population mean = 100

σ is the population standard deviation = 15

z = 135 - 100/15

z = 2.33333

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<135) = 0.99018

P(x>135) = 1 - P(x<135)

P(x > 135) = 1 - 0.99018

= 0.0098153

Approximately to 2 decimal places

= 0.01

Therefore, the proportion of the population for the following IQ score of 135 is 0.01
