A normal distribution has a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 14. Determine the value above which 80 percent of the values will occur.
--------------
Find the z-value associated with a right tail of 80%
---
invNorm(0.8) = 0.8416
-----
Find the corresponding raw-score value using x = zs+u
x = 0.8416*14+80 = 91.78
