Determine the probability (assuming normal distribution) that a car would need engine maintenance between 70,000 and 90,000 miles.

What will be an ideal response?


The value 70000 is below the mean value and the z value corresponding to 70000 is determined from



A = 0.4706. Similarly, the value 90000 is below the mean value and the z score corresponding to 90000 is computed from



A = 0.3238. Therefore, the probability that a car would need engine maintenance between 70000 and 90000 miles is 0.4706-0.3238 = 0.1468
