A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 62.6 in. And standard deviation 2.5 in. The survey also f

ound that men's heights are normally distributed with mean 68.3 in. And standard deviation 3.3 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 57 in. And a maximum of 64 in. If the height requirements are changed to exclude only the tallest​ 50% of men and the shortest​ 5% of​ men, what are the new height​ requirements?

Answer:

The new height requirements are minimum of 64.1875 inches and maximum of 68.3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To exclude the tallest 50% of men and shortest 5% of men, we need to find the critical z-value for a significance level of 0.5 & 0.05 and then solve for x in the z-score equation.

For significance value of 0.5, z = 0

We are given;

μ = 68.3 in

σ = 2.5 in

Thus from z = (x - μ)/σ, we have;

0 =(x - 68. 3)/2.5

0 = x - 68. 3

x = 68.3 inches for men max

Similarly, for significance value of 0.05, z = -1.645

Thus to find x;

-1.645 = (x - 68. 3)/2.5

-4.1125 = x - 68.3

x = 68.3 - 4.1125

x = 64.1875 inches for men min

The first two negatives cancel out and you're left with positive 4. Now go inside the square root and do the exponent. -4*-4 = 16. Then do the -4*3*1 = -12. Do 16-12 = 4. now the square root of 4 = 2. at the dominator is 2*3 = 6. right now they problem should look like 4+- 2/ 6. from there you split the problem in two. so you have 4+2/6   &     4-2/6     then you solve both problems.
           6/6               2/6
             1                  1/3
1 & 1/3 are your answers. I hope this helped!
