Given that x is a normal variable with mean μ = 44 and standard deviation σ = 6.8, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
(a) P(x ≤ 60) = 0.9907
Correct: Your answer is correct.
-----------------------------------
(b) P(x ≥ 50)
z(50) = (50-44)/6.8 = 0.8823
P(x <= 50) = P(z <= 0.8823) = normalcdf(-100,0.8823) = 0.8112
--------------------
(c) P(50 ≤ x ≤ 60) = P(0.8823<= z <=2.3529)
= normalcdf(0.8823<2.3529) = 0.1795
