A. Use the "Statistics" function of your calculator to find the sample mean and sample
standard deviation
for the data. (Round to tenths.)
1. Mean
Use these statistics (sample mean and sample standard deviation) as point estimates for
the population
parameters (population mean and population standard deviation) when calculating the
standard (z) scores.
2. Standard deviation
B. Use the Normal Probability Distribution table or the built-in functions of your calculator
to find:
1. What percent of female adults are taller than 6 feet (72 inches)?
2. What percent of female adults are taller than 5 feet (60 inches)?
3. What percent of female adult heights are between 60 inches and 72 inches?
C. Because of the high cost of leather, the company has decided they cannot profitably make
leather pants in all sizes.
Use the Normal Probability Distribution table or the built-in functions of your calculator
to find the heights
corresponding to the following percentages. These are the heights of the shortest and
tallest females who can
purchase leather pants from this company.
1. The bottom 8%
2. The upper 6%

Expert Solution
Step 1

Hello! As you have posted more than 3 sub parts, we are answering the first 3 sub-parts.  In case you require the unanswered parts also, kindly re-post that parts separately.

A.

B using the 'statistics' function, 

1. Sample mean is 65.5

2. Sample standard deviation is 3.000

 

B.

1.

The percent of female adults are taller than 6 feet(72 inches) is,

PX>72=PX-meanstandard deviation>72-meanstandard deviation               =Pz>72-65.53              =1-Pz2.1667              =0.0151, obtained from the excel function, =1-NORM.DIST(2.1667,0,1,TRUE)              =1.51%
