x 500
μ 527
σ 112
Solution:
Formula z=(x-μ)/σ
z = (500-527)/112
= -0.241071429
P(z ≤ 0.24) = 0.40 left tail of z
0.60 right tail of z
P(x ≥ 500) = 1-NORM.DIST(500,527,112,TRUE)
= 0.595250122
= 60%
there is 60% chance that all incoming 3rd year student will have a score of 500 on their qualifying exam.
