The average score for all pro golfers for a particular course has a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 3.0.
Suppose that 36 pro golfers played a famous California golf
course today.
Find the probability that the average score of the 36 golfers exceeded 71.
------
z(71) = (71-70)/[3/sqrt(36)] = 1/(1/2) = 2
-----
P(x > 71) = P(z > 2) = 0.0228
