Statistics

Park Rangers in a Yellowstone National Park have determined that fawns less than 6 months old have a body weight that is approximately normally distributed with a mean µ = 26.1 kg and standard deviation s = 4.2 kg. Let x be the weight of a fawn in kilograms.

Complete each of the following steps for the word problems below:

·       ·  Rewrite each of the following word problems in to a probability expression, such as P(x>30).

·       ·  Convert each of the probability expressions involving x into probabilityexpressions involving z, using the information from the scenario.

·       ·  Sketch a normal curve for each z probability expression with the appropriate probability area shaded.

·Solve the problem.

·What is the probability of selecting a fawn less than 6months old in Yellowstone that weighs less than 25 kilograms?
