Question

Law firm averages 149 cases per year with a standard deviation of 14 points. Suppose the law firm's cases per year are normally distributed. Let X= the number of cases per year. Then X∼N(149,14).

Round your answers to THREE decimal places.

Provide your answer below:

Suppose the law firm has 186 cases in 2015. The z-score when x=186 is __. This z-score tells you that x=186 is __ standard deviations to the right of the mean, which is __.

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.
