According to a study done by De Anza students, the height for Asian adult males is normally distributed with an average of 66 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. Suppose one Asian adult male is randomly chosen. Let X = height of the individual.

Answer:

The probability that the person is between 65 and 69 inches is 0.5403

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean height = [tex]\mu = 66[/tex]

Standard deviation = [tex]\sigma = 2.5[/tex]

We are supposed to find What is the probability that the person is between 65 and 69 inches i.e.P(65<x<69)

[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

At x = 65

[tex]Z=\frac{65-66}{2.5}[/tex]

Z=-0.4

Refer the z table for p value

P(x<65)=0.3446

At x = 69

[tex]Z=\frac{69-66}{2.5}[/tex]

Z=1.2

P(x<69)=0.8849

So,P(65<x<69)=P(x<69)-P(x<65)=0.8849-0.3446=0.5403

Hence the probability that the person is between 65 and 69 inches is 0.5403
