Question:

Membership in Mensa requires an IQ score above 131.5. Nine candidates take IQ tests, and their summary results indicated that their mean IQ score is 133. (IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.)

a. If 1 person is randomly selected from the general population, find the probability of getting someone with an IQ score of at least 133.

b. If 9 people are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean IQ score is at least 133.

c. Although the summary results are available, the individual IQ test scores have been lost. Can it be concluded that all 9 candidates have IQ scores above 131.5 so that they are all eligible for Mensa membership?
