Given X = 3, μ = 4, and σ = 0.8
Calculate P(X < Z)
Using the Normal Distribution, Calculate P(X < 3)
Z = | X - μ |
σ/√1 |
Z = | 3 - 4 |
0.8/√1 |
Z = | -1 |
0.8/1 |
Z = | -1 |
0.8 |
Z = -1.25
From the table below, we see that our Z value is = 0.39435
The z-table probability runs from 0 to z and -z to 0
Z value = 0.39435
Since that represents ½ of the graph, we subtract our value from 0.5 → 0.5 - 0.39435
P(x<-1.25) = 0.10565
