Problem Set 1:

1. Five thousand students took the CMU entrance test. The scores were normally distributed.
Your score was in the 97.5th percentile.

A. How many people scored at or below your score? 4875

B. Given that the mean score is 79, what is your raw score?
C. Referring to letter b question, what is the standard deviation if your score is 2 standard
deviations above the mean?

2. If the weights of 600 students are normally distributed with the mean of 50 kilograms and a
variance of 16 kilograms.

A. How many students have weights exceeding 52 kilograms? 19

B. Determine the percentage of students with weights lower than 55 kilograms. 89.44%

3. Let Z be a standardized variable. Find the area of the following using the Normal Table.

A. P(Z < 2.25)= 0.9878 D. P(Z > 2.50)= 0.0062

B. P(Z = 2.25)= 0.4878 E. P(1.15 < Z < 2.25)= 0.1129
C. P(−1.15 < Z < 2.25)= 0.8672 F. P(−2.25 < Z < −1.15)= 0.1129

4. For a normally distributed data with mean score is 56 and the variance is 25.
Determine

A. The Z-score if;

1. X = 42= -2.80
2. X = 52= -0.80
3. X = 47= -1.80
4. X = 61= 1.00
5. X = 70= 2.80
B. The X score in the exam if;
1. Z = 1.60= 64
2. Z = -2.80= 42
3. Z = 2.40= 68
4. Z = 3.20= 72
5. Z = -1.20= 50
