According to a study done by De Anza students, the height for Asian adult males is normally distributed with an average of inches and a standard deviation of inches. Suppose one Asian adult male is randomly chosen. Let X = height of the individual.
a.
b. Find the probability that the person is between and inches. Include a sketch of the graph, and write a probability statement.
c. Would you expect to meet many Asian adult males over 72 inches? Explain why or why not, and justify your answer numerically.
