    A population of measurements is approximately normally distributed with mean of 25 and a variance of 9. Find the probability that a measurement selected at random will be between 19 and 31. Solution: The values 19 and 31 must be transformed into the corresponding z values and then the area between the two z values found. Using the transformation formula from X to z (where µ = 25 and σ √9 = 3)‚ we have z19 = (19 – 25) / 3 = -2 and z31 = (31 - 25) / 3 = +2 From the area between z =±2 is 2(0
