To the nearest percentage point, what percentage of students who play a sport don’t play a musical instrument?
First, using the information given, fill out the chart with the rest of the data (in the image attached)
Then find the number of students who play a sport and don’t play a musical instrument, which in the chart is 11
Place 11 over the total: and convert to a percentage:
44%
Answer:
0.281 = 28.1% probability a given player averaged less than 190.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
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.
A bowling leagues mean score is 197 with a standard deviation of 12.
This means that
What is the probability a given player averaged less than 190?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 190.
has a p-value of 0.281.
0.281 = 28.1% probability a given player averaged less than 190.
