Suppose that by the end of 2009, that percentage was 85%. If a sample of 10 U.S. adults is selected, what is the probability that:
(a) P(X = 8)
(b) P(X ≥ 8)
(c) P(X ≤ 10)
(d) Provide a substantive answer to the question.
2. Mean of 2.0 seconds and Standard Deviation of 0.5
(a) P(X < 2)
(b) P(1.5 < X < 2.5)
(c) P(X > 1.8)
(d) P(A < X) = 0.99. What is A?

Mean of 1.005 and Standard Deviation of 0.10
(a) P(
< 1.0) =
(b) P(0.95 < < 1.0)
(c) P(1.0 < < 1.05)
(d) P( < 0.95) or P( > 1.05)
(e) Type a substantive answer to the question.
