Question

Please help me solve!

Answer 1

13.5%

Explanation:

Given that μ = 144, σ = 27:

For x = 90: z= 90-144/27=-2

For x = 117: = 117-144/27 = -1

Therefore, From the normal distribution table: -2 gives .02275 and -1 gives .15866

So the required percentage = .02275 - .15866 = -0.13591= 13.5%

Hence, 13.5% of the population would be between 144 and 198
