1.

The scores on a standardized math exam are normally distributed with a mean of 75 and a
standard deviation of 10. What is the probability that a randomly selected student scored
above 85 on the exam?

2. The heights of adult women in a certain country follow a normal distribution with a mean
of 64 inches and a standard deviation of 3 inches. What is the probability that a randomly
selected woman is between 62 and 68 inches tall?
3. The time it takes employees to complete a task in a company is normally distributed with
a mean of 30 minutes and a standard deviation of 5 minutes. If a manager wants to select
employees who complete the task in less than 25 minutes, what percentage of employees
will be selected?
4. The daily rainfall in a city follows a normal distribution with a mean of 0.5 inches and a
standard deviation of 0.2 inches. What is the probability that on a randomly selected day,
the rainfall will be between 0.3 inches and 0.7 inches?
5. The lifespan of a certain type of light bulb is normally distributed with a mean of 1200
hours and a standard deviation of 150 hours.What is the probability that a randomly
selected light bulb lasts longer than 1400 hours?
