Two students are throwing water balloons at a target. Accuracy is measured as how close the balloon is from the center of the target. Tory's distances from the center of the target are approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 123 mm and a standard deviation of 31 mm. Adam's distances from the center is approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 108 mm and a standard deviation of 47 mm. If 5 attempts for Tory and 3 attempts for Adam are randomly selected, what is the probability that the mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam?

The scores of individual students on the ACT Exam are modeled as normally distributed with a mean of 19.6 and a standard deviation of 5.0. At Clark High, 64 seniors take the test. Assume the individual scores at this school are modeled using the same distribution as national scores. What are the expectation and variance of the sample mean score for this random sample of 64 students?
A running back on the Spartans football team gains an average of 3.5 yards per carry with a standard deviation of 2. The distribution of yards gained is normal. If the ball is 7 yards from the end zone what is the probability that the running back will score a touchdown if he is given the ball?
According to a medical journal, the distribution of weights of newborn babies is approximately Normal, with a mean of 3390 grams and a standard deviation of 550 grams. what is the probability that a newborn baby will weigh more than 3800 grams?
The sizes of houses in Kenton County are normally distributed with a mean of 1369 square feet with a standard deviation of 171 square feet. For a randomly selected house in Kenton County, what is the probability the house size is over 1158 square feet? z = probability =
In engineering and product design, it is important to consider the weights of people so that airplanes or elevators aren't overloaded. Based on data from the National Health Survey, we can assume the weight of adult males in the US has a mean weight of 177 pounds and standard deviation of 32 pounds. We randomly select 50 adult males. What is the probability that the average weight of these 50 adult males is over 180 pounds?
A farmer has 60 lbs of apples and120 lbs of potatoes for sale. The market price for apples (per pound) each day is a random variable with a mean of 0.8 dollars and a standard deviation of 0.3 dollars. Similarly, for a pound of potatoes, the mean price is 0.7 dollars and the standard deviation is 0.1 dollars. It also costs him 5 dollars to bring all the apples and potatoes to the market. The market is busy with shoppers, so assume that he'll be able to sell all of each type of produce at that day's price. Complete parts a) through d). Make sure to consider all necessary assumptions before calculating. a) Define your random variables, and use them to express the farmer's net income. b) Find the mean. The mean profit is nothing dollars. c) Find the standard deviation of the net income.

Keith is a drummer who purchases his drumsticks online. When practicing with the newest pair, he notices they feel heavier than usual. When he weighs one of the sticks, he finds that it is 2.23 oz. The manufacturer's website states that the average weight of each stick is 1.85 oz with a standard deviation of 0.18 oz. Assume that the weight of the drumsticks is normally distributed. What is the probability of the stick's weight being 2.23 oz or greater? Give your answer as a percentage precise to at least two decimal places. You might find this table of standard normal critical values useful.
