Step 1: Identify the given information.
Mean weight,
Standard deviation,
The weights are normally distributed.
Part i· 2 steps
Probability of randomly selecting a bat that weighs between 1 gram and 2 grams
Convert the weights to Z-scores.
For :
For :
Find the probability using the Z-scores.
We need to find , which is equivalent to .
Using a standard normal distribution table (Z-table):
The probability is:
Part ii0.0001
Probability of randomly selecting a bat that weighs more than 2.2 grams
Convert the weight to a Z-score.
For :
Find the probability using the Z-score.
We need to find , which is equivalent to .
Using a standard normal distribution table (Z-table):
(since 3.80 is a very high Z-score)The probability is:
