Explain in your words why a density curve has two properties listed in Key Fact 6.1 on page 252
Density curve depicts continuous outcomes probability. As probability > 0, so the curve lies on or above horizontal axis. As total probability = 1, so total area under the curve = 1

In Exercises 21鈥�24, use these parameters (based on Data Set 1 鈥淏ody Data鈥� in Appendix B):鈥⑩�侻en鈥檚鈥俬eights鈥俛re鈥俷ormally鈥俤istributed鈥倃ith鈥俶ean鈥�68.6鈥俰n.鈥俛nd鈥俿tandard鈥俤eviation鈥�2.8鈥俰n.鈥⑩�俉omen鈥檚 heights are normally distributed with mean 63.7 in. and standard deviation 2.9 in.Mickey Mouse Disney World requires that people employed as a Mickey Mouse character must have a height between 56 in. and 62 in.
a. Find the percentage of men meeting the height requirement. What does the result suggest about the genders of the people who are employed as Mickey Mouse characters?
b. If the height requirements are changed to exclude the tallest 50% of men and the shortest 5% of men, what are the new height requirements?
Standard Normal DistributionIn Exercises 17鈥�36, assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. In each case, draw a graph, then find the probability of the given bone density test scores. If using technology instead of Table A-2, round answers
to four decimal places.
Between -3.00 and 3.00.
Unbiased Estimators Data Set 4 鈥淏irths鈥� in Appendix B includes birth weights of 400 babies. If we compute the values of sample statistics from that sample, which of the following statistics are unbiased estimators of the corresponding population parameters: sample mean; sample median; sample range; sample variance; sample standard deviation; sample proportion?
