Normal Distribution
Assuming the heights of adult males in the UK are Normally distributed with mean 175.4cm
and standard deviation 9.1cm (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_height).
What proportion of the population would you expect to be over 1.9m?
What proportion of the population would you expect to be between 1.7m and 1.8m?
What height would you recommend door frames be made at?

Calculate the standardised z-value: z 
x

Find P( Z  z ) using: p1iueuq{ MENU RUN Option > Prob > P( }
To plot the curve use: p2yqw{ MENU STAT DIST NORM Ncd }
Set Data to “Variable”, and set the mean, standard deviation and limits. Scroll down and
select u{ DRAW }
For a 1-tail probability use an extreme value (e.g. Lower: –1000)
