QuestionUnit 2: The Normal Distribution L4 Practice - The Standard Normal Curve Name: \qquad Hamahtlargus 1) Scores on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, a standard IQ test, are approximately Normal for the age group of 20 to 34 . The mean score is 110 with a standard deviation of 25 . What percent of this age group has an IQ below 100 ? P=(.28<z<.35)P=(-.28<z<.35) a) Write the inequality using the raw score. b) Find the zz-score and rewrite the inequality.  ?. P(z=1001025z=.4\text { ?. } P\left(\quad z=\frac{\frac{100-10}{25}}{z=-.4}\right. c) Draw the Normal standardized curve. d) What are you entering into your calculator? z=2011025=3.6z=3411025=3.04z=\frac{20-110}{25}=-3.6 \quad z=\frac{34-110}{25}=-3.04 e) 34,4%34,4 \% of adults from 20 to 34 have an IQ less than 100 . 2) The distribution of blood cholesterol levels in 14 -year-old boys is roughly normal; the mean is 165 milligrams of cholesterol per deciliter of blood and the standard deviation is 30 . What proportion of 14 -year-old boys have a blood cholesterol level over 120mg/dl120 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{dl} ? a) Write the inequality. P1P 1 c) Draw the Normal standardized curve. b) Find the zz-score and rewrite the inequality. z=12016530=1.5z=\frac{120-165}{30}=-1.5 d) What are you entering into your calculator?
Lower: Upper: Mean (μ)(\mu) : Standard Deviation (σ)(\boldsymbol{\sigma}) : e) \qquad %\% of 14 -year-old boys have a blood cholesterol level over 120mg/dl120 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{dl}.

Studdy Solution
e) Calculate the percentage of boys with cholesterol levels over 120 mg/dl:
Using a standard normal distribution table or calculator, find P(Z>1.5)0.9332 P(Z > -1.5) \approx 0.9332 .
Thus, approximately 93.32% 93.32\% of boys have a blood cholesterol level over 120 mg/dl.
