Provide an original example of some practical case where we can use the normal distribution (e.g., IQ scores follow a normal distribution of probabilities with a mean IQ of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 IQ points.). Assign your numbers for mean 70 and standard deviation 30. Make sure 70 is about four times bigger than 30. Then select any number 90 below or above mean 70, but not too far from 70. Find following two probabilities: 1) P(x < a)2) P(x > a)Use the formula z = (a - μ)/σ to calculate your z-value. Please refer to the Appendix Table for the Standard Normal Distribution Hint: To find P(x>a) use formula: P(x>a) = 1 - P(x<a). Describe how to would find P( 65 < x < 25). Provide an original example to illustrate how to find such probabilities.
