The scores of the students on a standardized test are normally distributed, with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 110. What is the probability that a randomly selected student has a score between 350 and 550? Use the portion of the standard normal table below to help answer the question. z Probability 0.00 0.5000 0.25 0.5987 0.35 0.6368 0.45 0.6736 1.00 0.8413 1.26 0.8961 1.35 0.9115 1.36 0.9131

Question
Answer:
The probability  of the students to be randomly selected between 350 and 550 will be 0.2395 or 24%What will be the probability? we know that the formula for probability is given by [tex]Z=\dfrac{X-\mu }{\sigma}[/tex]where,Z = Z score,X = raw score,μ = mean,σ = standard deviation,The probability  of the students to be selected randomly between 350 and 550 will be given as [tex]=P(350 < X < 550)[/tex][tex]=P(350-500 < X-500 < 550-500)[/tex][tex]=P(\dfrac{350-500}{110} < \dfrac{X-500}{110} < \dfrac{550-500}{110}[/tex][tex]=P(-1.36 < Z < 0.45)[/tex][tex]=P(Z-1.36)-P(Z-0.45)[/tex][tex]=(0.9131-0.6736)[/tex][tex]=0.2395[/tex]Thus the probability of the students to be randomly selected between 350 and 550 will be 0.2395 or 24%To learn more about probability follow
