1. What percent of the area under the normal curve is between z = - 1.00 and z = 1.00?

A. 65.26%
B. 68.26%
C. 66.26%
D. 67.26%
Answer: z = - 1.00 and z = 1.00
-1.00 = 0.3413 and 1.00 = 0.3413
= 0.3413 + 0.3413
= 0.6826
= 0.6826 X 100
= 68.26 %
= B. 68.26 %

3. Five hundred tickets will sold and these will be raffled during the town fiesta. One of these tickets will
win Php 3,000.00 and the rest will win nothing. What will be the expected outcome and the variance
of your gain if you will buy one of the tickets?
A. The expected outcome = Php 6.00 and the variance of your gain is Php 1,764.00
B. The expected outcome = Php 7.00 and the variance of your gain is Php 1,764.00
C. The expected outcome = Php 8.00 and the variance of your gain is Php 1,764.00

B. 96.25% of the scores are less than 70.
C. 94.25% of the scores are less than 70.

8. Anthony Vincent tosses an unbiased coin. He receives Php 100 if a head appears and he pays Php 40 if
a tail appears. Find the expected value and the variance of his gain.
A. expected value = 30 & variance = 4,800
B. expected value = 30 & variance = 4,900
C. expected value = 30 & variance = 4,700
D. expected value = 30 & variance = 4,600

Answer:
x P(x) xP(x) x2P(x)
-40 0.5 -20 800
100 0.5 50 5,000
= 30 = 5,800

a. expected value = [xP(x)] b. variance of his gain = [x2P(x) - ([xP(x)])^2

= 30 = 5,800 - (30)^2
• The expected value is Php 30 = 5,800 – 900
• The variance of his gain is Php 4,900
= 4,900
• B. expected value = 30 & variance = 4,900
 9. The following are the results of a study of the number of defective oven
toasters produced by a certain company. Use the data and the associated
probabilities to compute the expected number of defective oven toasters.

X 0 1 2 3 4 5
P(x) 0.01 0.16 0.28 0.27 0.15 0.06

A. The expected number of defective oven toasters are approximately equal to 4.

B. The expected number of defective oven toasters are approximately equal to 1.
C. The expected number of defective oven toasters are approximately equal to 3.
D. The expected number of defective oven toasters are approximately equal to 2.
Answer:
