Question

Assume that thermometer readings are normally distributed with a mean of 0C and a standard deviation of 1.00C. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. For the case​ below, draw a​ sketch, and find the probability of the reading.​ (The given values are in Celsius​ degrees.) Between and

Answer 1

Answer: 0.0546 and 0.9829

Step-by-step explanation:

solution:

= P( 1.50< Z <2.25 )

= P(Z <2.25 ) - P(Z <1.50 )

Using z table,

= 0.9878-0.9332

=0.0546

b.

= P( -2.12< Z <3.73 )

= P(Z <3.73) - P(Z <-2.12 )

Using z table,

= 0.9999-0.0170

=0.9829
