The amount requested for home loans followed the normal distribution with a mean of $70,000 and a standard deviation of $20,000
A. How much is requested on the largest 3 percent of the loans?
B. How much is requested on the smallest 10 percent of the loans?

(1) Look at your Normal Cumulative Tables to find the Z value of 97% (or 0.97). This is 100% minus the 3% for the largest. The Z value should be 1.88.

Since this Z value is standardized, we just turn it around to make it fit our numbers. X~N(70000, 20000^2)

1.88 = [X - 70000] / 20000
==> 1.88 * 20000 = X – 70000
==> X = 107615.87

(2) Now find the Z Cumulative value for .10 [This represents 10% and everything smaller]. Should be -1.28.

So take our Z value, and again change this to find our distribution X~N(70000,20000^2)

So
-1.28 = [X - 70000] / 20000
==> -1.28 * 20000 = X – 70000
==> X = 44400

let x = loan in thousands
the normalized variable is z = (x – 70)/20

A. the largest 3% is when
Prob( z >1.89) = 97%
or (x – 70)/20 > 1.89
x – 70 > 20(1.89) = 37.8
x > 107.8
the largest 3% of loans are from 107.8 thousands and up

B. the smallest 10 % is when
Prob (z < -1.29) = 10%
(x – 70)/20 < -1.29
x – 70 < – 25.8
x < 44.2
the last 10 % of loans are those $44.2 thousands or lower.
