and illustration.


Suppose the current annual salary of all teachers in the Philippines have a normal distribution with a mean of 95,000 pesos and a standard deviation of 20,000 pesos.


a. Find the probability that the annual salary of a randomly selected teacher would be between 56,000 and 76,000.(with illustration)


b.Find the probability that the annual salary of a randomly selected teacher would be at least 50,000 pesos. (with illustration)


c. Find the probability that the annual salary of a randomly selected teacher would be 126,000 pesos. (with illustration)


DIRECTIONS: Solve for the z-computed value of the following. Write your answer to the

nearest hundredths. Show the complete solution.

1. x̅ = 9.2 μ = 10 σ =3 n = 68

2. x̅ = 28.3 μ = 26 σ = 4.5 n = 80

3. x̅ = 72.2 μ = 75 σ = 5.8 n = 118

4. x̅ = 49.6 μ = 52 σ = 7 n = 160

5. x̅ = 92 μ = 100 σ = 12 n = 130


Replacement times of TV sets are reported to follow a normal distribution having a mean

of 8.5 years with standard deviation of 1.2 years.

a. If 30 TV sets are selected at random, what is the probability that the mean

replacement time is less than 8 years?

b. If 20 TV sets are selected, what is the probability that the mean replacement

time is longer than 7.8 years?

c. If 25 TV sets are randomly selected, what is the probability that the

replacement time is between 8.4 years and 9 years?
