Mopeds (small motorcycles with an engine capacity below 50 cm3) are very popular in Europe because of their mobility, ease of operation, and low cost. Suppose the maximum speed of a moped is normally distributed with mean value 46.7 km/h and standard deviation 1.75 km/h. Consider randomly selecting a single such moped.

(a) What is the probability that maximum speed is at most 49 km/h? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(b) What is the probability that maximum speed is at least 47 km/h? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(c) What is the probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 1.5 standard deviations? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

A European growth mutual fund specializes in stocks from the British Isles, continental Europe, and Scandinavia. The fund has over 200 stocks. Let x be a random variable that represents the monthly percentage return for this fund. Suppose x has mean μ = 1.4% and standard deviation σ = 1.3%. (a) Let's consider the monthly return of the stocks in the fund to be a sample from the population of monthly returns of all European stocks. Is it reasonable to...
