Answer:

a. 97.72% of the observations are less than 33

b. Approximately 977 observations are less than 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 25 and a standard deviation of 4.

This means that \mu = 25, \sigma = 4

a. Approximately what percentage of the observations are less than 33?

The proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 33. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{33 - 25}{4}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a p-value of 0.9772

0.9772*100% = 97.72%

97.72% of the observations are less than 33.

b. Approximately how many observations are less than 33?

Out of 1000:

0.9772*1000 = 977.2

Approximately 977 observations are less than 33.
