Question
A random variable is said to be distributed as , denoted by , iffor . Let , where be independent and identically distributed random variables with . The value of , after approximation through Central Limit Theorem, is given by
(Recall that )
(Recall that )
Correct answer
(A) φ(2) - φ(-2)
Solution
Given with .
Mean .
Variance .Let . Since are i.i.d.,
.
.
Standard deviation .We want to find . Using CLT, we standardize :Lower bound: .

AI-powered practice· Unlimited practice on eligible plans
- PYQs with solutions
- Attempt available previous-year questions, then compare your reasoning with the worked solution. Coverage varies by stream.
- Practice that adapts
- Choose a topic, work on weaker areas and bookmark questions to revisit. Your attempts feed your progress tracking.
- AI doubt support
- Ask follow-up questions about a step or concept while practising, instead of stopping at the final answer.
Unlimited practice is available on eligible plans. Free practice and AI usage have limits; check the current plan allowances before choosing.
This page stays readable without an account. AI responses can be wrong; check them against the solution and source material.
