Question 3 Suppose that the height, in inches, of a 22-year-old man is a normal random variable with mean 71 and variance 6.25. 1. What percentage of 22-year-old man are over 74 inches tall? 2. What percentage of 22-year-old men in the 72-inch club (no one below 72 inches) are over 77 inches? 3. There are ten 22-year-old men in the 72-inch club. What’s the probability that more than 8 of them are over 74 inches?(You can write down the answer with scientific notation) 4. For the last question, what assumptions are you making?

A sports medicine major wanted to conduct an experiment to determine if there is a correlation between the members of the soccer team's leg strength and the time it takes for them to sprint 40 yards. He sets up the following test and records the data: Every day for a week, he counts how mnany times each player can leg press 350 pounds. The following week, he has each player sprint 40 yards every day. The table shows the average number of leg-press repetitions and the average 40-yard dash time (in seconds) for seven randomly selected players. What is the equation of the line of best fir?
