### Systolic Blood Pressure Analysis**Overview:** Consider a mean systolic blood pressure of normal adults recorded as 120 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), with a standard deviation of 5.6. The variable is considered normally distributed. Calculations should be rounded to at least four decimal places, with intermediate z-value calculations precise to two decimal places.#### Part 1 of 3:- **Probability Calculation for an Individual:** Determine the probability that an individual's systolic blood pressure is between 118.4 mmHg and 121.9 mmHg. \[ P(118.4 < X < 121.9) = 0.2472 \] This indicates that there is a 24.72% probability for an individual's pressure to fall within this specified range.#### Part 2 of 3:- **Probability Calculation for a Sample Mean:** Consider a randomly selected sample of 28 adults. Find the probability that the sample mean blood pressure is between 118.4 mmHg and 121.9 mmHg. Assume the correction factor is negligible since the sample is from a large population. \[ P(118.4 < \overline{X} < 121.9) = \,? \] Calculations here involve determining the z-score for the sample mean and applying the central limit theorem, which modifies the standard deviation for the sample. This step requires solving for the probability with given parameters for better statistical inference. **Progress Indicator:**- Part 1 is completed as denoted by the [✓] checkmark and the progress bar showing completion of the first segment out of three. This breakdown helps users understand the statistical methods used for calculating probabilities related to systolic blood pressure in both individual cases and sample means.

Let x be a random variable that represents micrograms of lead per liter of water(ug/l).An industrial plant discharges water into a creek. The Environmental Protection Agency has studied the discharged water and found x to have a normal distribution, with o=0.7 ug/L The industrial Plant says that the population mean value of x is u = 2.0 ug/L.However a random sample of n= 10 water samples showed that x = 2.56ug/L.Does this indicate that the lead-concentration population mean is higher that the industrial plant claims ?
