Question 1012754: The mean height of soldiers is 68.22 inches with a variance of 10.8. Assuming the distribution of heights to be normal, how many soldiers in a regiment of 1000 would you expect to be over 6 feet tall? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The mean height of soldiers is 68.22 inches with a variance of 10.8. Assuming the distribution of heights to be normal, how many soldiers in a regiment of 1000 would you expect to be over 6 feet tall?
-------
z(72 in) = (72-68.22)/10.8 = 0.35
-------
P(over 6 ft) = P(z > 0.35) = 0.3632
-----
# out of 1000 = 363 when rounded down
