The required value of P(x> 242) = is 0.975 for normal distribution. Option D is correct.
The normal distribution has a mean of 266 and a standard deviation of
12. What is P(x> 242) is to determine.
Whata is normal distribution?
Normal distributions can be altered to standard normal distributions by the formula:
Z = (X - μ)/σ
Where x is a value from the initial normal distribution, μ is the mean of the initial normal distribution, and σ is the standard deviation of the initial normal distribution. The standard normal distribution is periodically called the z distribution.
Now,
z = X - 266 /12
p(x > 242) = P [(X - 266)/12 ≥ (242 - 266)/12]
p(x > 242) = P [z ≥ -24/12]
p(x > 242) = P [z ≥ -2]
p(x > 242) = P [z ≤ 2]
p(x > 242) = 0.975 (from Z table).
Thus, the required value of P(x> 242) = is 0.975. Option D is correct.
