Enabling Assessment Answers

This document contains solutions to probability problems involving discrete, exponential, and normal distributions. For the discrete problems, the solutions provide the probability of outcomes given the number of trials, probability of success, and number of successes. For the exponential distribution problems, the solutions give probabilities of outcomes exceeding or being less than given values. For the normal distribution problems, the solutions provide probabilities of outcomes falling above or below given z-scores based on the mean and standard deviation.

Normal Distribution A. Answers (Z<x) score in ztable


A. using the z table (Z<-x) 1-score in ztable
1) P ( Z < -1.96 ) = 0.9750 (Z>x) 1 - score in ztable
2) P ( Z > 1.23 ) = 0.8907 (Z>-x)1-score in ztable
3) P ( Z > - 0.15 ) = 0.4404
