Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ=50 and standard deviation σ=7. Find the 81st percentile.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]P(81)=56.16[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mean [tex]\mu=50[/tex]

Standard Deviation [tex]\sigma=7[/tex]

Percentile 81st

Generally Probability of 81st Percentile

 [tex]P(Z<x)=81\%[/tex]

Using Standard normal Table

 [tex]P(Z<0.88)=81\%[/tex]

Therefore the 81st percentile is given as

 [tex]P(81)=z*\sigma *\mu[/tex]

 [tex]P(81)=0.88*7*50[/tex]

 [tex]P(81)=56.16[/tex]
