It follows a regular distribution with an average bond price of
100 and a variance of 9. Which best represents the probability that
the bond price is greater than 106 (where z is the probability
variable in the standard normal distribution).)
1.p(z<1) 2.p(z>1) 3.p(z>2) 4.p(z<2) 5.p(z=2)
Solution :
P(x > 106) = 1 - P(x < 106)
= 1 - P[(x -
) /
< (106 - 100) / 3]
= 1 - P(z < 2)
= P(z > 2)
3)
It follows a regular distribution with an average bond price of 100 and a variance of...
