Suppose X has a normal distribution with mean 115 and variance 25. Find the 67th percentile of the distribution of X.
Given that the X has a normal distribution with mean = 115 and variance = 25, hence the standard deviation is . To find the 67th percentile of the distribution of X we need to find the Z score at 67th percentile which is calculated using the excel formula for normal distribution which is =NORM.S.INV(0.67), thus the Z is computed as 0.44
Now based on the Z -score formula the 67th percentile is computed as:
Thus the 67th percentile of the distribution of X is 117.2
