The heights of female students at a university follows Normal distribution with a mean 66 inches and a standard deviation 3 inches. A researcher randomly selects 36 female students from the university, surveys their heights and calculates a sample mean. Now suppose that the population standard deviation is unknown. Also, the researcher calculate the sample standard deviation to be 3 inches. a) What is the probability that the sample mean height is between 65 inches and 67 inches? b) Instead...

Assume the distribution of home selling prices follows a normal distribution. for this area the mean selling price is $95,140 and the standard deviation of the selling price is $13,100. Let S be the home selling price. For a randomly selected home find P(S>$100,000). The answer is approx. = .6447. I just really need to know how to set this question up in a TI-84 calculator PLEASE! It's urgent!
