Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

Find the probability that in a particular week the {amount} is less than {lower} {units1}:

Probability = ?Gap 0.(to 2 decimal places)

Find the probability that in a particular week the {amount} is greater than {upper} {units1}:

Probability = ?Gap 1.(to 2 decimal places)

Advice

1. Converting to $\operatorname{N}(0,1)$

$\simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{P(X < {lower}) = P(Z < ({lower} -{m}) / {s}) =1 -P(Z < {m-lower}/{s})} = 1-P(z<\var{zlower})=1 -\var{p} = \var{prob1}$ to 2 decimal places.

2. Converting to $\operatorname{N}(0,1)$

$\simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{P(X > {upper}) = P(Z > ({upper} -{m}) / {s}) = 1 -P(Z < {upper-m}/{s})} = 1-P(z<\var{zupper})=1-\var{p1} = \var{prob2}$ to 2 decimal places.
