3. Suppose that you are going to select a random sample of $n = 1$ score from the distribution in Figure 6.2. Find the following probabilities: a. $P(X > 2)$ b. $P(X > 5)$ c. $P(X < 3)$ Figure 6.2 Frequency X 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Step 1
2. We can do this by summing the frequencies for each score. From the histogram: - For X = 1, Frequency = 2 - For X = 2, Frequency = 1 - For X = 3, Frequency = 2 - For X = 4, Frequency = 3 - For X = 5, Frequency = 1 (shaded) - For X = 6, Frequency = 1 Show more…

Discrete Probability
$X$ is a normally distributed random variable with mean 100 and standard deviation $10 .$ Use Figure 12.2 "Cumulative Normal Probability" to find the first probability listed. Find the second probability using the symmetry of the density curve. Sketch the density curve with relevant regions shaded to illustrate the computation. a. $\quad P(X<80), P(X>120)$ b. $\quad P(X<75), P(X>125)$ c. $\quad P(X<84.55), P(X>115.45)$ d. $\quad P(X<77.42), P(X>122.58)$
