1. Assume that IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 and SD 15. Find the value which is the IQ separating top 30% and bottom 70%.

2. Let weight of men are normally distributed with mean 172 lbs and standard deviation 29 lbs. Find the value of the weight (X) which separate the top 0.5% with the bottom 99.5% of the weight.

birth weight in US are normally distributed with mean of 340g and a strandard deviation of 45g. If a hospital plans to set up observation condition for the lightest 7% of the babies, what weight is used for the cutoff separating the lightest 7% from the others?
