6.2 (b) P(Z < – 1.57) + P(Z > 1.84) = 0.0582 + 0.0329 = 0.0911
cont. (c) If P(Z > A) = 0.025, P(Z < A) = 0.975. A = + 1.96.
(d) If P(–A < Z < A) = 0.6826, P(Z < A) = 0.8413. So 68.26% of the area is captured between
–A = – 1.00 and A = + 1.00.

Since your score of 81% on this exam represents a Z-score of 1.00, which is below the
minimum Z-score of 1.28, you will not earn an “A” grade on the exam under this grading
option.

According to the normal probability plot, the data appear to be right skewed. The kurtosis
is 2.8815 indicating a distribution that is more peaked than a normal distribution, with
more values in the tails. The skewness of 1.5635 indicates a right-skewed distribution.

range = 131 interquartile range = 41 standard deviation = 31.69
The mean is very close to the median. The five-number summary suggests that the
distribution is quite symmetrical around the median. The interquartile range is very close
to 1.33 times the standard deviation. The range is about $50 below 6 times the standard
deviation. In general, the distribution of the data appears to closely resemble a normal
distribution.

The normal probability plot confirms that the data appear to be approximately normally
distributed.
6.23 Using the tables of the normal distribution with knowledge of μ and σ along with the
transformation formula, we can find any probability under the normal curve.
6.24 Using Table E.2, first find the cumulative area up to the larger value, and then subtract the
cumulative area up to the smaller value.
6.25 Find the Z value corresponding to the given percentile and then use the equation X = μ + zσ .
6.26 The normal distribution is bell-shaped; its measures of central tendency are all equal; its middle
50% is within 1.33 standard deviations of its mean; and 99.7% of its values are contained within
three standard deviations of its mean.
6.27 Both the normal distribution and the uniform distribution are symmetric but the uniform
distribution has a bounded range while the normal distribution ranges from negative infinity to
positive infinity. The exponential distribution is right-skewed and ranges from zero to infinity.

6.28 If the distribution is normal, the plot of the Z values on the horizontal axis and the original values
on the vertical axis will be a straight line.

Die Lektüre dieses Buches wird für jeden folgerichtig denkenden
Deutschen ein erschütterndes Ereignis bedeuten. Der gefürchtetste
Gegner unserer Feinde spricht zu uns. Der Einzige, der mit genialem Blick
den Weg zum Siege erkannte, enthüllt, wie man ihn kaltstellte. Tiefster
Schmerz um alles Große, das uns verloren ging, spricht aus diesen
Blättern, aber auch ein fester, stolzer Wille zum ehrenvollen Weiterleben.
„Vom Deutschtum zu retten, was noch zu retten ist, bleibt des
Schweißes der Edlen wert. Unsere Hoffnung aber sei das kommende
Geschlecht. Ein Sklavenvolk sind wir noch nie gewesen. Seit
zweitausend Jahren hat unser Volk nach jähem Sturz immer wieder
sich emporgehoben.“
Mögen diese Worte, in denen die „Erinnerungen“ ausklingen, im ganzen
deutschen Volke Widerhall finden.

sein, zu hören, daß ich seit Jahren kein Buch mit solchem Genuß und
solcher Ergriffenheit gelesen habe, als dieses. Zunächst rein äußerlich,
dieser großartige Stil, diese kurzen Sätze, wie gehacktes Eisen. Das ist
die echte deutsche Soldatensprache. Dann aber inhaltlich dieser Spiegel,
der dem deutschen Volke vorgehalten wird.

Generaloberst Freiherr von
Hausen
Erinnerungen an den
Marnefeldzug
Mit Bildnis des Verfassers, verschiedenen
Karten und Gefechtsskizzen und einer
einleitenden vortrefflichen historischen Studie
von
Friedrich M. Kircheisen
Preis geheftet etwa M. 10.—, gebunden etwa M. 14.50
Generaloberst von Hausen war zu Beginn des Krieges Führer der 3.
Armee, die dem Gegner an der Marne solche kraftvolle Schläge versetzte,
daß Joffre und Foch jeden Augenblick glaubten, das französische
Zentrum würde durchbrochen werden.
Hausen hat die Operationen seiner Armee musterhaft geleitet, trotzdem er
an Typhus erkrankt war. Seine Erkrankung war tatsächlich der Grund, daß
er vom Kaiser seines Kommandos enthoben wurde, während die Legende
sich bildete, daß Hausen an der nichtgewonnenen Schlacht schuld sei.
Hausens Erinnerungen bedeuten eine
Ehrenrettung der 3. Armee und ihres Führers.
Sie basieren auf den Unterlagen des Großen Generalstabes, die ihm zur
Verfügung standen, und sind untermischt mit höchst lebenswarmen
persönlichen Eindrücken, so daß nicht etwa ein militärtechnisches oder
polemisches Buch entstanden ist, sondern ä u ß e r s t s p a n n e n d e ,
fließend geschriebene Feldaufzeichnungen.
Die beiden weißen Völker!
(The two white nations!)
Deutsch-englische Erinnerungen eines
deutschen Seeoffiziers
von
Georg von Hase

Korvettenkapitän a. D.
Preis geheftet etwa M. 10.—, gebunden etwa M. 14.50
Zwei historische Zusammentreffen mit Teilen der englischen Kriegsflotte
bilden den Inhalt dieses Buches, das seine Titel einem Trinkspruch eines
englischen Admirals verdankt. Die Begegnungen fanden zu ganz
verschiedenen Zeiten und unter ganz veränderten Umständen statt: 1914
zur Kieler Woche und 1916, als die deutsche Flotte vor dem Skagerrak
ihren gefährlichsten Gegner stellte und schlug. / Korvettenkapitän von
Hase nahm an der Seeschlacht vor dem Skagerrak als Erster
Artillerieoffizier unseres größten, stärksten und schönsten
Großkampfschiffes, des Schlachtkreuzers „Derfflinger“ teil. Er ist in das
heißeste Kampfgewühl hineingeraten, hat sämtliche Phasen der Schlacht
miterlebt und dabei zu der Vernichtung der beiden englischen
Schlachtkreuzer „Queen Mary“ und „Invincible“ entscheidend beigetragen.
Es gibt zur Zeit noch keine Darstellung der Schlacht vor dem Skagerrak,
in der ein Mitkämpfer in führender Stellung die Schlacht sowohl vom
militärischen Standpunkt wie vom Standpunkt des persönlichen
Miterlebens, frei von den Fesseln der Zensur, beschrieben und beurteilt
hätte. Das vorliegende Buch berichtet als erstes vom tatsächlichen
Geschehen und wird zu einem Heldensang deutschen Mutes und
deutscher Kraft.
