The probability of an event can be computed by the probability formula by simply dividing the favorable number of outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.

  • The probability exists a branch of mathematics that deals with calculating the likelihood of a given event's happening, which is defined as a number between 1 and 0. An event with a probability of 1 can be regarded as a certainty.

Utilizing the TI-83, 83+, 84, 84+ Calculator to estimate these probabilities

Go to 2nd DISTR, and select item 2: normalcdf

The syntax is: normalcdf (lower bound, upper bound, mean, standard deviation)

a) P(1100 <= X <= 1500)

= normalcdf(1100, 1500, 1252, 129)

= 0.8534

b) P(X < 1125)

= normalcdf(-1E99, 1125, 1252, 129)

= 0.1624

c) P(X > 1200)

= normalcdf(1200, 1E99, 1252, 129)

= 0.6566 = 65.66%

d) P(X < 1000)

= normalcdf(-1E99, 1000, 1252, 129)

= 0.0254 = approx. 3rd percentile
