ESIMOS Assignment - Module 3. Normal Distribution

The document contains the solutions to two probability problems involving normal distributions. The first problem involves the travel time of students from home to school, which has a mean of 90 minutes and standard deviation of 8.5 minutes. The second problem involves the amount of money domestic tourists from Luzon spend on trips to Visayas, which has a mean of P20,000 and standard deviation of P2,650. For each problem, the document calculates the probabilities of various events by determining the corresponding z-scores and standard normal distribution areas.

ASSIGNMENT: MODULE 3: NORMAL DISTRUBUTION


A. The average travel time of a student from home to school is 90 minutes with standard
deviation of 8.5 minutes.
1. What is the probability that a student’s home-to-school travel time is over 100
minutes?

P (x > 100)

Z-score = (100-90)/8.5 = 1.18

Area of probability= 1 - .88100 = 0.11900

.11900

X 100
Z 1.18

2. What is the probability that a student’s home-to-school travel time is either under 70
minutes or over 95 minutes?

P (70 > x > 95)

Z-upper= (95-90)/8.5 = 0.59

Z-lower= (70-90)/8.5 = -2.35

Areaupper = .72240 = 1-.72240= .2776


.28699
Arealower = .00939
Area = 0.2776 +.00939= 0.28699

X 70 95
Z -2.35 0.59
3. What is the probability that a student’s home-to-school travel time is less than 60
minutes?

P (x < 60)

Z-score= (60-90)/8.5 = -3.53

Area of probability is .00021

.00021

X 60
Z -3.53
4. What is the probability that a student’s home-to-school travel time is between 65
minutes and 110 minutes?

P (65 < x < 110)

Z-upper= (110-90)/8.5 = 2.35

Z-lower= (65-90)/8.5 = -2.94

Areaupper = .99061
Arealower = .00164
Area= .99061 - .00164 = 0.98897
.98897

X 65 110
Z -2.94 2. 35
B. A domestic tourist from Luzon spends an average of P20,000 with standard deviation of
P2,650 every time she goes to certain tourist destinations in Visayas.

1. What is the probability that a domestic tourist spent between P15,000 and P18,000?

P (15000 < x < 18000)

Z-upper= (18000-20000)/2650 = -0.75

Z-lower= (15000-20000)/2650 = -1.89

Areaupper = .22663
Arealower = .02938
Area= .22663 - .02938= 0.19725
.19725

X 15000 18000
Z -1.89 -0.75

2. What is the probability that a domestic tourist spent over P27,000)?

P (x > 27000)

Z-score= (27000-20000)/2650 = 2.64

Area of probability = 1-. 99585 = .00415

.00415

X 27000
Z 2.64
3. What is the probability that a domestic tourist spent P30,000 at the least?

P (x > 30000)

Z-score= (30000-20000)/2650 = 3.77

Area of probability = 1- .99992 = .00008

.00008

X 30000
Z 3.77

4. What is the probability that a domestic tourist spent either below P12,500 or above
P29,500?

P (12500> x > 29500)

Z-upper= (29500-20000)/2650 = 3.58

Z-lower= (12500-20000)/2650 = -2.83

Areaupper = 1 - .99983 = .00017


Arealower = .00233
Area= .00017+ .00233 = 0.00250 .00250

X 12500 29500
Z -2.83 3.58
