Question 1198156: The average height of males in a given statistics class is 5.9 ft with a standard deviation of 5 ft. What is the probability that a selected male from the class is between 6 and 5.8 feet?
Choose one of the following:
A) 42%
B) 31.6%
C) 15.8%
D) 57.9% Found 2 solutions by ewatrrr, ikleyn:Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! IF µ = 5.9ft and σ = .5ft
Using TI or similarly an inexpensive calculator like an Casio fx-115 ES plus
P(5.8ft ≤ x ≤ 6ft) = normcdf(5.8,6,.5,5.9) = .1585

Your input data is defective, since it is (obviously) fatally unrealistic.
In her calculations, @ewatrrr changed the input data in arbitrary way,
even without informing/warning you about it.
