This is practice computing normal probabilities. Make sure that you practice using the calculator you will use on the tests, since you will not be allowed to use R during tests.
The problems are posted in pdf form in the “Resources” page in Piazza.
Section 4.3 p. 245 #4.3.1, 4.3.2, 4.3.5(a, b), 4.3.9, 4.3.11
4.3.9 and 4.3.11 are examples of binomial probabilities which are being estimated by a normal probability using the Demoivre-Laplace Theorem. See the notes linked at the top of this page.
Also, more practice finding critical values of Z: use your calculator please!
Find values of the standard normal z such that:
$P(Z \le z) = 0.01$
$P(Z \gr z) = 0.01$
$P(Z \gr z) = 0.005$
Also don’t forget about R programming assignment 1
Don’t forget, if you get stuck on a problem, you can post a question on Piazza. Make sure to give your question a good subject line and tell us the problem itself – we need this information in order to answer your question. And please only put one problem per posted question!
