Question

A farm produces watermelons. The weight of a ripe watermelon is expressed as X and we consider the normal distribution where the expectation value is 2.2 and the standard deviation = 0.8.

suppose that a watermelon that is classified as a first class weights at least 1,5 Kg.

-Given that a watermelon fulfill the requirement (weighs at least 1.5 kg), what is the probability that it weighs between 2 and 2.5 kg?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
