The heights of 500 students are normally distributed with a mean of 162.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of 7.6 centimeters. Assuming that the heights are recorded to the nearest half-centimeter, how many of these students would be expected to have heights (a) less than 149.0 centimeters? (b) between 160.5 and 171.0 centimeters inclusive? (c) equal to 163.0 centimeters? (d) greater than or equal to 177.0 centimeters? Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page 2 of the standard normal distribution table. (a) 19 student(s) (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)

The heights of 500 students are normally distributed with a mean of 162.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of 7.6 centimeters. Assuming that the heights are recorded to the nearest half-centimeter, how many of these students would be expected to have heights (a) less than 149.0 centimeters? (b) between 160.5 and 171.0 centimeters inclusive? (c) equal to 163.0 centimeters? (d) greater than or equal to 177.0 centimeters? Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page 2 of the standard normal distribution table. (a) 19 student(s) (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.) (b) ☐ student(s) (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)
