Assume that on a standardized test of 100 questions, a person has a probability of 80% of answering any particular question correctly. Find the probability of answering between 70 and 80 questions, inclusive, correctly.
\n" ); document.write( " P(70 ≤ X ≤ 80)=?
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "mean = np = 100*0.8 = 80
\n" ); document.write( "std = sqrt(npq) = sqrt(80*0.20) = 4
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "z(70) = (70-80)/4 = -5/2
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "z(80) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "P(7<= x <=80) = P(-5/2)<= z <= 0) = 0.49
