    The document provides an example of working backwards to find a corresponding value when given a probability. It involves finding the value k when the probability that a normally distributed random variable X with a mean of 60 and standard deviation of 8 is less than or equal to k is equal to 0.90. It describes drawing a diagram to help visualize the normal distribution and find that the shaded region corresponds to the given probability, with the solution being that k equals 70.3.

    When we
    already have the probability and need to work backwards to find the

    corresponding value .

    EXAMPLEA
    X is
    population of rabbits
    with
    have
    60
    a bodyJ
    and
    length of
    standard
    X .

    deviation
    normally distributed a mean of a

    of 8 .
    Find k when PCX Ch ) = 0.90 .

    ① Draw a
    diagram to help you :

    10.90 0=8
    in
    i

    #
    k

    ⑤ .

    what part of the


    # diagram is shaded !

    # the probability
    # mean and standard deviation

    ⑥
    The answer !
