Two groups of people's weights were recorded so the groups could be compared.

Group A has a mean of 146 lb and standard deviation of 9.6 lb
Group B has a mean of 154 lb and standard deviation of 12.4 lb

We will answer: Is a 150 lb person more normal (not unusual) in group A or group B?

First calculate the z-score for the 150 lb person if they are in group A.

Enter the z-score below. Round to three places past the decimal point.

At Discount Tire they sell a variety of tires. A certain brand advertised their lifespan in miles follows a nearly normal distribution.
Use the model: N(40,000 miles, 3,000 miles).

If a tire had a z-score of -.46, how many miles did this tire last?
