Answer:

<em>The percentage of students sudy 34 hours or more is 0.62%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Normal Distribution</u>

The bell curve or normal distribution is frequently used to model the probability of natural random events. The normal distribution N(\mu,\sigma) is characterized by two parameters:

\mu is the mean value

\sigma is the standard deviation

The study times in hours for the final exam is modeled as a normal distribution N(24,4). We are required to find the percentage of students study 34 hours or more, or P(X>34).

The values for the cumulative probability are given by tables or digital means like Excel where we can get the left-tail or P(X<Xo). To compute the right-tail or P(X>Xo) we use this relation

P(X>Xo) =1-P(X

The Excel formula to find the left-tail cumulative probability is called

NORM.DIST(x,mean,standard_dev,cumulative)

To solve the question, we used:

NORM.DIST(34,24,4,TRUE)=0.9938

Thus:

P(X>34) =1-P(X

The percentage of students study 34 hours or more is 0.62%
