Heights of males are normally distributed with the mean 170 cm and the standard deviation of 8 cm. What is the probability that males are taller than 176 cm?

Question

0.2266


0.7734


0.0500


0.0031


0.9969

Answer 1

To find the probability that males are taller than 176 cm, we first need to calculate the z-score for this height:

z = (176 - 170) / 8 = 0.75

Next, we look up the z-score in the standard normal distribution table to find the probability that males are taller than this height.

From the z-table, we find that the probability corresponding to a z-score of 0.75 is 0.7734.

Therefore, the probability that males are taller than 176 cm is 0.7734.
