Assume the random variable x is normally distributed with mean p=85 and standard deviation =4. find the indicated probability p(x< 81)=

0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

81 is 1 standard deviation below the mean.  According to the empirical rule, 68% of data lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean; here the equivalent statement would be that half of that, or 34%, lies within 1 standard deviation below the mean.  Half of the area under the standard normal curve, less this 0.34, is the probability that the random variable is below 1 standard deviation beneath the mean.  That comes to 0.16.

On a calculator, you might enter the command normalcdf(-100,81,85,4); on my old TI-83 Plus I get 0.1587, which rounds off to 0.16.

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d
