Question

The measurement of the height of 600 students of a college is normally distributed with a mean of

Answer 1

Answer:

68

Step-by-step explanation:

We let the random variable X denote the height of students of the college. Therefore, X is normally distributed with a mean of 175 cm and a standard deviation of 5 centimeters.

We are required to determine the percent of students who are between 170 centimeters and 180 centimeters in height.

This can be expressed as;

P(170<X<180)

This can be evaluated in Stat-Crunch using the following steps;

In stat crunch, click Stat then Calculators and select Normal

In the pop-up window that appears click Between

Input the value of the mean as 175 and that of the standard deviation as 5

Then input the values 170 and 180

click compute

Stat-Crunch returns a probability of approximately 68%
