Suppose that the distance of fly balls hit to the outfield (in baseball) is normally distributed with a mean of 250 feet and a s

tandard deviation of 46 feet. Use your graphing calculator to answer the following questions. Write your answers in percent form. Round your answers to the nearest tenth of a percent. a) If one fly ball is randomly chosen from this distribution, what is the probability that this ball traveled fewer than 210 feet

Answer:

On the graphing calculator, use the function normCdf, where

lower bound = -9999
upper bound = 210
mean = 250
standard deviation = 46

It will result in normCdf(-9999,210,250,46) ≈ 0.192269 or 19.2269%
