Math Problem Statement
Compare what you get for P(> b) 2-score: Z = \frac{72 - 69}{3} = 1 5 From the standard normal table, P(Z < 1) lapprox 0.8413 6 So, P(X > 72) = 1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587 Draw the normal distributions (using the same scale on the x-axis (so the distributions should be getting narrower) and shade in the area corresponding to P(> b)
Solution
Here is the plot of two normal distributions:
- Blue curve: Represents the normal distribution with and , which is the distribution relevant to your problem.
- Green curve: Represents the standard normal distribution with and , shown for comparison.
The shaded blue area corresponds to , which equals , and it is the area under the curve to the right of (indicated by the red dashed line).

Here are five related questions for further exploration:
- How does changing the mean affect the shape and position of the normal distribution curve?
- What happens to the probability if the standard deviation increases?
- Can you calculate the probability for the same distribution?
- How would you calculate the probability for a range, such as ?
- What is the relationship between the Z-score and the probability for normal distributions?
Tip: In normal distributions, about 68% of values fall within one standard deviation of the mean.
