Answer:

the probability that two 18 year old boys chosen at random will have heights greater than 185cm is 0.403

Step-by-step explanation:

P( x > 193) = 0.15

= 1- p(x less than or equal 193)

= 1 -p( z < (x- u) /sigma)

= 1- p( z< (193 - 187)/ sigma)

= 1- p( z< 6/ sigma)

P(z< 6/sigma) = 1 - 0.15

P(z < 6/sigma)= 0.85

6/sigma =1.036

Sigma= 6/1.036

Sigma= 5.79

P( x> 185) = 1- p( x< 185)

= 1- p (z < (185- 187)/5.79)

= 1- p( z< -0.345)

= 1- 0.365

= 0.635

P (x> 185) = 0.635 × 0.635

=0.403
