Question 785450
The height of an adult male is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 175 cm and a standard deviation of 6 cm. What must the height of a doorway be, such that 99 percent of adult males can pass through it without having to bend?
--------
Find the z-value with a left tail of 99%.
----
invNorm(0.99) = 2.3263
----
Find the corresponding "x" value::
x = z*s + u
x = 2.3263*6 +175
x = 188.96 cm
