Let X be the height measurement of ten years children in a country of united states.

Then,


X\approx N(55.8,7.8)

To find


P(X<37.7)

Using the definition


Z=(X-\mu)/(\sigma)


P(X<37.7)=0.0102

Hence, the probability that a randomly chosen child has a height less than 37.7 inches is 0.0102.

Now,


P(X>58.3)=0.3743

Hence, the probability that a randomly chosen child has a height more than 58.3 inches is 0.3743.
