Please help me solve this as many as you can. Thank you. 1/ Doing research for insurance rates, it is found that those aged 30 to 49 drive an average of 38.7 miles per day with a standard deviation of 6.7 miles. These distances are normally distributed. If a group of 60 drivers in that age group are randomly selected, what is the probability that the mean distance traveled each day is between 29.9 miles and 39.9 miles? 2/ A...
(20 points) Suppose that the return of stock A is normally distributed with mean 4% and standard deviation 5%, the return of stock B is normally distributed with mean 8% and standard deviation 10%, and the covariance between the returns of stock A and stock B is -30(%)2. Now you have an endowment of 1 dollar, and you decide to invset w dollar in stock A and 1 - w dollar in stock B. Let rp be the overall return...

4. If test scores are approximately normally distributed with mean 82 and standard deviation 8. What score would correspond to the 80th percentile? Round to the nearest tenth.
Jeff's bowling scores are approximately normally distributed with mean 130 and standard deviation 15, while Jill's scores are normally distributed with mean 125 and standard deviation 24. If Jeff and Jill each bowl one game, then assuming that their scores are independent random variables, approximate the probability that the total of their scores is above 260.
The diameter of a brand of ping-pong balls is approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 1.31 inches and a standard deviation of 0.04 inch. A random sample of 4 ping-pong balls is selected. d. The probability is 54% that the sample mean will be between what two values, symmetrically distributed around the population mean? The lower bound is The upper bound is
The weight of Bluefin Tuna is approximately normally distributed with mean 32 pounds and standard deviation 5 pounds. Find the probability a fish weighs exactly 20 pounds?
The price of math textbooks are normally distributed with a mean of $165 and a standard deviation of 28.50. Find the probability that the mean price of a random sample of 16 textbooks is between $164 and $168.
A population is normally distributed with a mean of 55 and a standard deviation of 4. Using the Empirical Rule, approximately what percentage of data values fall between 51 and 59? Please show your calculations.
Final averages are typically approximately normally distributed with a mean of 74 and a standard deviation of 11.5. Your professor says that the top 10% of the class will receive an A; the next 24%, a B; the next 33%, a C; the next 19%, a D; and the bottom 14%, an F. (Give your answers correct to one decimal place.) (a) What average must you exceed to obtain an A? (c) What average must you obtain to pass the...
