Question 18
The z-scores of the test results of a sample of 43 students follow the T-distribution with 42 degrees of
freedom. Let X be the z-score of a randomly selected student.
1. Describe the distribution of X:
2. Use the random variable notation to express symbolically each of the following:
P(X<-1.7)=0.05 The probability of an event in which the z-score of a randomly selected
student is less than -1.7 is equal to 0.05.
|X<0
An event in which the z-score of a randomly selected student is less than 0.
P(X<2) ✓ The probability of an event in which the z-score of a randomly selected
student is less than 2.
3. Use technology to find the probability that the z-score of a randomly selected student is:
i. less than 0:
ii. more than 2:
iii. between 1 and 0.7:
iv. more than 9.6:
X-TV (df= 42
v. less than 12.3:
4. Find the 2-th percentile:
