Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 105 and standard deviation 15. Find P9 which is the IQ score separating the bottom 9% from the top 91%.
-------
Find the z-value with a left tail of 9%.
invNorm(0.09) = -1.3408
----
Find the corresponding "x" value::
x = z*s +u
x = -1.3408*15+105 = 84.89
