(a) P(X > 95) = 63.1%

(b) P(X < 125) = 95.2%

(c) 523.25 people would have an IQ less than 110.

(d) 697.2 people would have an IQ greater than 140.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that IQ is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.

Let X = IQ level of a person

So, X ~ N()

The z score probability distribution is given by;

                Z = ~ N(0,1)  

where, = population mean

            = population standard deviation

(a) Probability that this person has an IQ greater than 95 is given by = P(X > 95)

P(X > 95) = P( > ) = P(Z > -0.33) = P(Z < 0.33) = 0.631 or 63.1%

(b) Probability that this person has an IQ less than 125 is given by = P(X < 125)

   P(X < 125) = P( < ) = P(Z < 1.67) = 0.9525 or 95.2%

(c) Now as we are given with the sample of 700 people. So, the z score probability distribution is now given as;

                    Z = ~ N(0,1)  

where, = population mean

            = population standard deviation

           n = sample size = 700

So, Probability of people that have an IQ less than 110 = P(X < 110)

   P(X < 110) = P( < ) = P(Z < 0.67) = 0.7475 or 74.75%

Now, people having an IQ less than 110 in a sample of 700 = 74.75% of 700

                 = = 523.25

Therefore, 523.25 people would have an IQ less than 110.

(d) Probability of people that have an IQ greater than 140 = P(X > 140)

   P(X > 140) = P( > ) = P(Z > 2.67) = 0.9962 or 99.6%

Now, people having an IQ greater than 140 in a sample of 700 = 99.6% of 700

                 = = 697.2

Therefore, 697.2 people would have an IQ greater than 140.
