Normal Distribution
A random variable X is said to have a normal (or
Gaussian) distribution with parameters  and ,
where -  <  <  and  > 0, with probability

Normal Distribution – Example Solution
The time it takes a driver to react to the brake lights
on a decelerating vehicle is critical in helping to
avoid rear-end collisions. The article ‘Fast-Rise Brake
Lamp as a Collision-Prevention Device’ suggests
that reaction time for an in-traffic response to a
brake signal from standard brake lights can be
modeled with a normal distribution having mean
value 1.25 sec and standard deviation 0.46 sec.
What is the probability that reaction time is between
1.00 and 1.75 seconds? If we view 2 seconds as a
critically long reaction time, what is the probability
that actual reaction time will exceed this value?

Lognormal Distribution - Example
A theoretical justification based on a certain material
failure mechanism underlies the assumption that ductile
strength X of a material has a lognormal distribution.
Suppose the parameters are  = 5 and  = 0.1
(a) Compute E(X) and Var(X)
(b) Compute P(X > 120)
(c) Compute P(110  X 130)
(d) What is the value of median ductile strength?
(e) If ten different samples of an alloy steel of this type were
subjected to a strength test, how many would you expect to
have strength at least 120?
(f) If the smallest 5% of strength values were unacceptable,
what would the minimum acceptable strength be?
