Question 354144: Birthweights at a local hospital have a normal distribution with a mean of 110 oz. and a standard deviation of 15 oz. What is the probability that a randomly chosen infant has a birthweight between 115 oz. and 130 oz.? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Birthweights at a local hospital have a normal distribution with a mean of 110 oz. and a standard deviation of 15 oz. What is the probability that a randomly chosen infant has a birthweight between 115 oz. and 130 oz.?
----
z(115) = (115-110)/15 = 1/3
---
z(130) = (130-110)/15 = 4/3
-----
P(115 < x < 130) = P(1/3 < z < 4/3) = 0.2782
