scores on an IQ test are normally distributed. The mean is 100 adn the standard deviation is 15. If 6000 people took the test, how many of them scored between 85 and 180?
---------------
Find the percentage of normaly distributed population, with mean
100 and sd = 15, with scores between 85 and 180
------------------
normalcdf(85,180,100,15) = 0.8413
-------------------------
Find that percent of 6000
x = 0.8413*6000 = 5048
