8. The mean height of a population of men is 70.8 inches and
the standard deviation is 3.2 inches. What proportion of
these men can walk through 6-foot tall doorway without
having to duck?
O 35%
65%
O 84%
O 16%

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. 84%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the mean male height is 70.8 inches (5 feet 10.8 inches)

and 6 feet falls within one deviation of the mean.

Through a normal distribution curve about 85 percent of men would be able to fit through the door

The other closest answer would be 65%, but this is incorrect as it only accounts for the men who fall under 1 standard deviation away from the mean, while all the men who are on the short outlier side would still be able to fit through the door.
