5. X is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 8 and a standard deviation of 4. This can be written as N(8,4). The probability that X is between 1.48 and 15.56 is . Write out the probability notation for this question.

The probability that X is between 1.48 and 15.56 is

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

X is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 8 and a standard deviation of 4.

This means that

The probability that X is between 1.48 and 15.56

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 15.56 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1.48. So

X = 15.56

has a pvalue of 0.9706

X = 1.48

has a pvalue of 0.0516

0.9706 - 0.0516 = 0.919

Write out the probability notation for this question.

The probability that X is between 1.48 and 15.56 is
