SOLUTION: The physical fitness of an athlete is often measured by how much oxygen the athlete takes in (which is recorded in milliliters per kilogram, ml/kg). The mean maximum oxygen uptake

Question 1126833: The physical fitness of an athlete is often measured by how much oxygen the athlete takes in (which is recorded in milliliters per kilogram, ml/kg). The mean maximum oxygen uptake for elite athletes has been found to be 70 with a standard deviation of 8.6. Assume that the distribution is approximately normal.
What is the probability that an elite athlete has a maximum oxygen uptake of 55 ml/kg or lower?

What is the probability that an elite athlete has a maximum oxygen uptake of at least 65ml/kg?

Your condition IS NOT PRECISELY correct.

The unit to measure on how much oxygen the athlete takes in,  should be


        ,


including the  TIME  in the denominator,  to measure the  FLOW RATE  per kilogram of the mass - not the flow itself per kilogram of the mass.

How do I know it ?    -    Simply because of my  COMMON SENSE.


            (Because I have my brain inside my head, and the brain still works).
