Explanation

Given: Normally distribution with the following information

[tex]\begin{gathered} \mu=25.5kg \\ \sigma=4.29kg \end{gathered}[/tex]

Required: To determine the probability that for a fawn chosen at random:

• x is less than 30.04kg

,

• x is greater than 15.82kg

,

• x is between 31.44 and 33.91kg

This is achieved thus:

First, we can approximate to a standard normal distribution with the formula below:

[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For Part A: x is less than 30.04kg

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(x<30.04)=P(Z<\frac{30.04-25.5}{4.29}) \\ \Rightarrow P(Z<1.0583) \\ =0.8550 \end{gathered}[/tex]

For Part B: x is greater than 15.82kg

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(x>15.82)=P(Z>\frac{15.82-25.5}{4.29}) \\ \Rightarrow P(Z>-2.2564) \\ =0.9880 \end{gathered}[/tex]

For Part C: x is between 31.44 and 33.91kg

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(31.44Hence, the answer is:[tex]\begin{gathered} (a)\text{ }0.8550 \\ \\ (b)\text{ }0.9880 \\ \\ (c)\text{ }0.0581 \end{gathered}[/tex]
