Question

1. For a standard normal random variable Z, find
(a) P(0 ? Z ? 1.56)

(b) P(Z ? 2.00)   

(c) P(|Z| < 1.78)

(d) P(?1.45 < Z < 2.65)    

(e) Z0 such that P(Z < Z0) = 0.9750

(f) Z0 such that P(Z > Z0) = 0.0054

3. For the previous problem, find the value of X which represents the 95th percentile.

4. The probability that a patient recovers from a rare blood disease is 0.4. If 100 people are known to have contracted the disease, what is the probability that less than 30 survive? (Use a normal approximation of a binomial distribution. Be sure to include a correction for continuity.)

Explanation / Answer

As per forum rules attempting Q1 :

a.P(0<=Z<=1.56) = .9406-.5 = .4406
b.P(Z<=2) = .95
c.P(|Z|<1.78) = 2*(.9625-.5) = .925
d.P(-1.45<Z<2.65) = .9960-.0735 = .9225
e.P(Z<Z0) = .9750, Z0 = 1.96
f.P(Z>Z0) = .0054, Z0 = 2.54
