Answer:
0.1587
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Mean (m) of distribution = 64 inches
Standard deviation (sd) of distribution = 2 inches
Probability that a randomly selected woman is taller than 66 inches
For a normal distribution :
Z - score = (x - mean) / standard deviation
Where x = 66
P(X > 66) = P( Z > (66 - 64) / 2)
P(X > 66) = P(Z > (2 /2)
P(X > 66) = P(Z > 1)
P(Z > 1) = 1 - P(Z ≤ 1)
P(Z ≤ 1) = 0.8413 ( from z distribution table)
1 - P(Z ≤ 1) = 1 - 0.8413
= 0.1587
