Scores from the UCLA Loneliness Scale are normally distributed with a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 10. showing the work, What is the probability that a randomly selected individual from the population will have a score below 30? d. What is the probability that a randomly selected individual from the population will have a score above 60?
a) P(X < 30)
= P((X - )/ < (30 - )/)
= P(Z < (30 - 40)/10)
= P(Z < -1)
= 0.1587
b) P(X > 60)
= P((X - )/ > (60 - )/)
= P(Z > (60 - 40)/10)
= P(Z > 2)
= 1 - P(Z < 2)
= 1 - 0.9772
= 0.0228
