Normal Distribution Curves

Example 1 68% of students’ scores would fall between ____ & ____, Suppose SAT scores roughly follows a normal distribution in the US population of college- bound students (with range restricted to 200-800), and the average math SAT is 500 with a standard deviation of 50. This would mean that… 68% of students’ scores would fall between ____ & ____, 95% of students’ scores would fall between ____ & ____, and 99.7% of students’ scores would fall between ____ & ____.

Extension… YIKES, Do WHAT?!? What if you wanted to know the math score corresponding to the 90th percentile? YIKES, Do WHAT?!? We will come back to this question, let’s get some more information… Click the following link for a Z Scores Chart: http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/algtrig/ATS7/ZChart.htm

Click the following link for a Z Scores Chart: Back to the question… What if you wanted to know the math score corresponding to the 90th percentile? Click the following link for a Z Scores Chart: http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/algtrig/ATS7/ZChart.htm

Example: The average heating bill for a residential area is $123 for the month of November with a standard deviation of $8. If the amounts of the heating bills are normally distributed, find the probability that the average bill for a randomly selected resident is more than $125.

Example: Monthly utility bills in a certain city are normal distributed with a mean of $100 and a standard deviation of $12. A utility bill is randomly selected. Find the probability it is between $80 and $115.

Example: An IQ test has a mean of 100 with a standard deviation of 15. What is the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 85 and 115?

Ex. Find the z-score corresponding to the 98th percentile. Ex Ex. Find the z-score corresponding to the 98th percentile. Ex. Find the z-score corresponding to the 10th percentile. Ex. Find the z-score corresponding to the .54th percentile.

Example: Monthly utility bills in certain city are normally distributed with a mean of $100 and a standard deviation of $12. What is the smallest utility bill that can be in the top 10% of the bills?

Example: Papa Fred’s Pizza has found that the mean time to deliver a pizza is 21.2 minutes with a standard deviation of 6.1 minutes. They want to have a guaranteed delivery time. In order to deliver 99% within the guaranteed time you need to find the time represented by the 99th percentile. What is this value?
