Normal distribution - practice problems - last page
It is used for random variables that are the sum of a large number of independent or only weakly dependent values. The probability distribution has a bell-shaped Gaussian curve. It is symmetric around the mean value μ, both median and mode. Three sigma rule (sigma σ = standard deviation): 68.26% of the probability belongs to the mean value μ to the distance σ, 95.45% belongs to 2σ, 99.73% to 3σ.Direction: Solve each problem carefully and show your solution in each item.

- IQ Intelligence quotient
Intelligence quotient (IQ) is a standardized score used as the output of standardized intelligence psychological tests to quantify a person's intelligence with the rest of the population (respectively, to a given group). Intelligence has an approximately - Assembly time
The assembly time for the toy follows a normal distribution with a mean of 75 minutes and a standard deviation of 9 minutes. The company closes at 5 pm every day. If one starts assembling at 4 pm, what is the probability that he will finish before the com - Stoaches
Stoaches are fictional creatures distantly related to bigfoot and yeti. Stoach weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 904g and a standard deviation of 104g. State the probability that the sample mean of a random sample of 36 stoach weights excee - Lifespan
The lifetime of a light bulb is a random variable with a normal distribution of x = 300 hours, σ = 35 hours. a) What is the probability that a randomly selected light bulb will have a lifespan of more than 320 hours? b) To what value of L hours can the la
- Ball bearings
One bearing is selected from the shipment of ball bearings. It is known from previous deliveries that the inner bearing radius can be considered a normal N distribution (µ = 0.400, σ2 = 25.10^−6). Calculate the probability that the selected radius will ex - Life expectancy
