Solution Summary

The solution provides step by step method for the calculation of probability using the Z score. The normally distribution has mean of u=100 and o=20. The expert determines if the probability of randomly selecting a score is greater than 90 from the distribution. The expert also determines if one score is randomly selected from the probability that the score will be less than x=84.

A normal distribution has a mean of u= 40 and o=10. If a vertical line is drawn through the distribution at x= 55, what proportion of the scores on the right side of the line?
Answer
We need P (X > 55)
P (X > 55) = = P (Z > 1.5) ...
