(b) Suppose that a doorway being constructed is to be used by a class of peoplewhose heights are normally distributed with mean 70 cms. and standard deviation 3cms. How long may the doorway be without causing more than 25% of the peopleto bump their heads? If the height of the doorway is fixed at 76 cms., how manypersons out of 5000 are expected to bump their heads? (Given ¤(2) = 0.4762).
