X has a normal distribution with a mean of 80.0 and a standard deviation of 4.0. Find the following probabilities: SHOW ALL WORK
\n" ); document.write( "(A) P(x < 79.0)
\n" ); document.write( "z(79) = (79-80)/4 = -1/4
\n" ); document.write( "P(x < 79) = P(z < -1/4) = normalcdf(-100,-1/4) = 0.4013
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(B) P(78.0 < x < 83.0)
\n" ); document.write( "z(78) = (78-80)/4 = -1/2
\n" ); document.write( "z(83) = (83-80)/4 = 3/4
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "P(78.0 < x < 83.0) = P(-1/2 < z < 3/4) = 0.4648
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "(C) P(x > 86.0)
\n" ); document.write( "z(86) = (86-80)/4 = 6/4 = 3/2
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "P(x > 86.0) = P(z > 3/2) = 0.2266
\n" ); document.write( "====================================
