Question

The mean height of women in a country (ages 20 - 29) is 64.3 inches. A random sample of 65 women in this age group is selected. What is the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches? Assume o = 2.81.

Answer 1

Answer:  0.4016

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable that represents the height of women in a country.

Mean : $\mu=64.3$ inches

Sample size : n= 65

Standard deviation: $\sigma=2.81$

The probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches = $P(x>65)=1-P(x$

$=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Hence, the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches = 0.4016
