Question

The Bank of Connecticut issues Visa and MasterCard credit cards. It is estimated that the balances on all Visa credit cards issued by the Bank of Connecticut have a mean of $830 and a standard deviation of $275. Assume that the balances on all these Visa cards follow a normal distribution. a. What is the probability that a randomly selected Visa card issued by this bank has a balance between $900 and $1430? Round your answer to three decimal places. P= b. What percentage of the Visa cards issued by this bank have a balance of $725 or more? Round your answer to two decimal places. P= %

Explanation / Answer

Mean of $830

and a standard deviation of $275

We are asked to assume normal distribution.

a) P(900<X<1430) = P( 900-930 / 275 <Z< 1430-930/275) = P(-.11<Z<1.82) = .9656- .4562 = .5094 or 50.94%

b) P(X>=725) = 1-.228 = .772 or 77.2%
