From there, the user follows the cues.<\/p>\n<p>\nExample: imagine the time to wash a car is normally distributed with mean 25 minutes and standard deviation 5 minutes. By what time duration will a wash be completed 45 percent of the time?<\/p>\n<p>\nSolution: MODE, then down arrow on the circular key at the top, then 3, then 3 again will yield the InvrNorm: Area? prompt. In this case, one would enter 0.45: the area means the proportion of the population less than or equal to the measurement. Moreover, 45 percent is 0.45. Next, InvrNorm: &sigma;? will appear, which asks for the standard deviation: 5 minutes in this case, so the user would enter 5. Next, InvrNorm: &mu;? appears, which is 25 in this case: the user would enter 25. The answer appears as xInv= 24.37. Therefore, 45 percent of the time, a wash will be completed within 24.37 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>\nA reminder: to get back from DIST mode to normal mode, it&#8217;s MODE 1.<\/p>\n<p>\nSource:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casio.com\/content\/dam\/casio\/global\/support\/manuals\/calculators\/pdf\/004-en\/f\/fx-115ESPLUS_991ESPLUSC_EN.pdf\">casio.com: fx-991ES PLUS C User&#8217;s Guide<\/a><\/p>\nJack of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oracletutoring.ca\">Oracle Tutoring by Jack and Diane,<\/a> Campbell River, BC.  \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tutoring statistics, calculators are important.
