X has a normal distribution with the given mean and standard deviation. Find the indicated probability. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) μ = 53, σ = 10, find P(38 ≤ X ≤ 73)

Are you doing this with tables?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

How do you find a "Z-score?"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You may also call them "Standard scores"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\] These are the things you use to find probabilities on your tables. What's the z-score of the limits you are looking for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, to get your answer, calculate the Z scores of your limits, and look up their probabilities on a table. The probability to fall between the two limits is: P(Z=Upper Z Score) - P(Z=Lower Z Score)
