II. Compute for the z-score(1pt) and find the corresponding area under the normal curve using the z-
table (1pt).

11-12. μ= 62 σ= 8 x= 70

13-14. μ= 62 σ= 8 x= 78

15-16. μ= 62 σ= 8 x= 82

17-18. μ= 62 σ= 8 x= 50

19-20. μ= 62 σ= 8 x= 42
IV. Problem Solving. Suppose three cellphones are tested at random. Let N represent the non-
functional phones and let W represent the working phones. If we let X be the random variable for the
number of the working phones, construct the probability distribution of the random variable X. (21-30)
