I need help with all parts of this question 15

Answer the question for a normal random variable \( x \) with mean \( \mu \) and standard deviation \( \sigma \) specified below. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

\[
\mu = 30 \quad \text{and} \quad \sigma = 11.
\]

Find a value of \( x \) that has area 0.01 to its right.

[Button: USE SALT]

Input box: \( x = \) 4.414 ❌

---

This exercise involves normal distribution, where you are asked to find a specific value of \( x \) with a given area to the right, indicating the use of z-scores and cumulative distribution functions. The provided solution of 4.414 is marked incorrect.

Suppose the weights of 3-month-old babies are normally distributed—baby boys with a mean of 14.4 pounds and a standard deviation of 1.7, and baby girls with a mean of 12.7 pounds and a standard deviation of 1.7. 

What proportion of 3-month-old baby girls will weigh between 12 and 13 pounds? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that 

Mean = μ = 30 , Standard deviation = σ = 11

P(X > x) = 0.01
