Question 865671: Women have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of 77.5 beats per minute and standard deviation of 11.6 beats per minute. Compute the probability that a randomly chosen woman has a heart rate that is higher than 70 beats per minute. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Women have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of 77.5 beats per minute and standard deviation of 11.6 beats per minute. Compute the probability that a randomly chosen woman has a heart rate that is higher than 70 beats per minute.
------------------------------
z(70) = (70-77.5)/11.6 = -0.6466
-----------------------------
P(beat > 70) = P(z > -0.6466) = 0.7411
----------------------------------------------
