Question 1147067: Assume that the systolic blood pressure of 30-year-old males is normally distributed with an average of 122 mmHg (millimeter of mercury) and a standard deviation of 10 mmHg. Calculate the probability that the average blood pressure of a randomly selected 30-year old male will be greater than 125 mmHg. (nearest ten thousandth)

z=(x-mean)/sd
>(125-122)/10
z> +0.3
This is probability 0.3821
