Question 1050946: I'm stuck on this one!
The overhead reach distances of adult females are normally distributed with a mean of 205 cm and a standard deviation of 8.3 cm.

The overhead reach distances of adult females are normally distributed with a mean of 205 cm and a standard deviation of 8.3 cm.
A) Find the probability that an individual distance is greater than 217.50 cm.
z(217.5) = (217.5-205)/8.3 = 12.5/8.3 = 1.5060
P(x > 217.5) = P(z > 1.5060 = normalcdf(1.5060,100) = 0.0660
--------------------------------
B) find the probability that the mean for 25 randomly selected distances is greater than 202.80 cm.
Note:: std of means of samples of size 25 = 8.3/sqrt(25) = 8.3/5 = 1.66
-----
z(202.80) = (202.8-205)/1.66 = -2.2/1.66 = -1.3253
P(x-bar > 202.8) = P(z > -1.3253) = normalcdf(-1.3253,100) = 0.9075

205 cm and a standard deviation of 8.3 cm.
a.
P(x>217.5) = 1 - P(x <= 217.5)
z = (217.50-205)/8.3 = 1.5
P(z<=1.5) = normalcdf(-10,1.5)= .84
P(x > 217.5) = 1 - .84 = .16 0r 16%

b. n = 25 , x̄ = 202.8
P(x>202.80) = 1 - P(x <= 202.80)
z = = -2.2/1.66 = -1.3253
P(z <= -1.3253) = .1885
|P(x > 202.8) = 1 - .1885 = .9115 0r 91.15%
