Assume that women’s heights are normally distributed with a mean of   63.6 inches and a standard
deviation   2.5 inches (based on data from the National Health Survey).
1. If 1 woman is selected at random, find the probability that her height is above 63
inches.

The following notes will be provided for your reference as the last page of Exam 3:
The Standard Normal Distribution is a normal probability distribution that has a mean
of   0 and a standard deviation of   1 . (Utilize Table A-2 to find probabilities for
given z-scores or to find z-scores for given probabilities.)
Formula for converting x-scores to z-scores:
z
x

Formula for converting z-scores to x-scores:
x    ( z  )
The Central Limit Thereom:
For large sample sizes (n>30) drawn from ANY distribution (or for smaller sample
sizes, if the original distribution is normally distributed), the sampling distribution of the
means has the following properties:
1. The distribution of the sample means is approximately Normal.
2. The mean of the sampling distribution is equal to the mean of the population.
x  
3. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is equal to the standard
deviation of the population divide by the square root of n.
