X is normally distributed with mean μ=100 and σ=16. Find P(98≤X<106).
X is normally distributed with a mean μ = 100 and σ =16
Z = (X - μ)/σ N(0,1)
P(98 < X <106) = P[(98 - 100/16)<(X - μ)/σ < (106 -100/100)]
= P(-2/16/ < Z< 6/16)
= P(- 0.125 < Z < 0.375)
= P(Z < 0.375) - P(Z < - 0.125)
= P(Z < 0.375) - P(Z > 0.125)
= P(Z < 0.375) - [1 - P(Z < 0.125)]
= P(Z < 0.375) - 1 + P(Z < 0.125)
= 0.64617 - 1 + 0.54974
= 1.19591 - 1
= 0.19591
