The amount of time devoted to studying statistics each week by students who achieve a grade of A in the course is normally distributed with a mean of 7.5 hours and a standard

deviation of 2.1 hours.

a. What proportion of A students study for more than 10 hours per week.

b. Find the probability that an A student spends between 7 and 9 hour

a) the probability of A students study for more than 10 hours per week

P(X>10) = 0.117

b) The probability that an student spends between 7 and 9 hour

P(7<x< 9) = 0.9522

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(I):-

Let 'X' be random variable of  the normal distributed with a mean of 7.5 hours and standard deviation of 2.1 hours

mean of the Population is = 7.5 hours

standard deviation of the Population = 2.1 hours

Z = 1.1904

The probability of A students study for more than 10 hours per week

P(X>10) = 0.5-A(Z₁) = 0.5 -A(1.1904) = 0.5 - 0.3830 = 0.117

Step(ii):-

Put x=7

put x=9

The probability that an A student spends between 7 and 9 hour

P(7 < x< 9) = A(9) - A(7)

                 = 0.7142 +0.238

= 0.9522





a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
