The scale of scores on an IQ test is approximately Normal with mean 97 and standard deviation 11. The organization MENSA, which calls itself the high lQ society, " requires an IQ score of 130 or higher for membership. Use this information to answer the following questions.

She scored higher than what percent of all adults? (Use 2 decimal places.)Explanation / Answer
for normal distribution z=(X-mean)/std deviation
a) P(X>130)=1-P(X<130)=1-P(Z<(130-97)/11)=1-P(Z<3)=1-0.99865=0.0013
b)z score =(118-97)/11 =21/11=1.91
c)P(Z<1.91)=0.97
hence 97 percentage
