1. In a city, it is estimated that the maximum temperature in June is normally distributed with a mean of
28º and a standard deviation of 5.4°. Calculate the number of days in this month in which it is expected to
reach a maximum of between 22° and 31°.

μ=28
σ=5.4
= P( 22 < X < 31 ) = P ( X < 31 ) − P ( X < 22 )
= P( Z < 31−28 / 5.4 ) − P ( Z < 22−28 / 5.4 )
= P ( Z < 0.556 ) − P ( Z < − 1.111 )
= 0.71074−0.13326
= 0.57748
= 0.5775
= 30 x 0.5775 ----- since there are 30 days in a month
= 17.325
ANSWER: 17 days

2. The mean weight of 800 college students is 56 kg and the standard deviation is 5 kg. Assuming that the
weight is normally distributed, determine how many students weigh:

a. Between 60 kg and 70 kg.

b. More than 68 kg.

{ BETWEEN 60 Kg AND 70 Kg}

3. Several intelligence tests follow a normal distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of
15.

Mean μ = 100
Standard deviation σ = 15
z1 = (95–100)/15 = —0.3333
z2 = (110–100)/15 = 0.6667
Proportion between 95 — 100 = 0.1306
Proportion between 100–110 = 0.2475
Total proportion between 95–110 = 0.1306 + 0.2475
= 0.3781
Percentage between 95–110 score = 37.81%

a. Determine the percentage of the population that would obtain a score between 95 and 110.

Sd =95
x+1sd=110
x-1sd =100-15=85
x+2sd =100+30=130
X-2sd =100-30=70
x+Sd =100+ 45=145
POINTS ABOVE 130 lie from x+2sd and above area of NPC
Z SCORE
P(X)value
=(100-130)÷15 =---30÷15 = --2
Read P value at --2 value 0.228

b. For a population of 2,500, how many are expected to have a score above 125?

P(95 < X < 110) = P(X < 110) - P(X < 95) = = P(Z < 0.6667) - P(Z < -0.3333…
