A normal distribution has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 4. Solve the following three parts? 1. Compute the probability of a value between 44.0 and 55.0. (The question requires finding probability value between 44 and 55. Solve it in 3 steps. In the first step, use the above formula and x = 44, calculate probability value. In the second step repeat the first step with the only difference that x=55. In the third step, subtract the answer of the first part from the answer of the second part.) 2. Compute the probability of a value greater than 55.0. Use the same formula, x=55 and subtract the answer from 1. 3. Compute the probability of a value between 52.0 and 55.0. (The question requires finding probability value between 52 and 55. Solve it in 3 steps. In the first step, use the above formula and x = 52, calculate probability value. In the second step repeat the first step with the only difference that x=55. In the third step, subtract the answer of the first part from the…
If a uniform distribution is defined over the interval from 6 to 10, then answer the followings: What is the mean of this uniform distribution? Show that the probability of any value between 6 and 10 is equal to 1.0 Find the probability of a value more than 7. Find the probability of a value between 7 and 9.   The closing price of Schnur Sporting Goods Inc. common stock is uniformly distributed between $20 and $30 per share. What is the probability that the stock price will be: More than $27? Less than or equal to $24?   The April rainfall in Flagstaff, Arizona, follows a uniform distribution between 0.5 and 3.00 inches.
