43

Respuesta :

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the sections that are one standard deviation from the mean are 34 and 40.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 37, \sigma = 3[/tex]

The measures that are one standard deviation from the mean are given by X when Z = -1 and Z = 1, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1 = \frac{X - 37}{3}[/tex]

X - 37 = -3

X = 34

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1 = \frac{X - 37}{3}[/tex]

X - 37 = 3

X = 40
