Question

Consider the following problems:

Suppose that the age (in years) of students at UFH, Alice is a random
variable that is normally distributed with an unknown value of the mean
and a variance of 15.21. Determine the value of the mean if the likelihood
of a student to be under age (as per the South African law) is 2 hundredth.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
