A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 66.3in. and standard deviation 3.4in. The survey also found that men's heights are normally distributed with mean 69.3in. and standard deviation3.5 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 56 in. and a maximum of 64 in. A) The percentage of men who meet the height requirement is? B) If the height requirements are changed to exclude only the tallest 50% and the Shortest 5% of men what are the new height requirements? (min and max).

You work for a forestry department. Your colleague asks your opinion of a proposal to use artificial selection to breed a population of lodgepole pines that are resistant to the mountain pine beetle. They have managed to clone a large number of seedling lodgepole pines all from a single parent. They want to take those clones that are most resistant to the mountain pine beetle and breed those together and then use this next generation to replant in a national park. Will this proposal work? Briefly justify your answer

A hotel chain wants to estimate the average number of rooms
rented daily in each month. The population of rooms rented daily is
assumed to be normally distributed for each month with a standard
deviation of 24 rooms.
During January, a sample of 16 days has a sample mean of 48 rooms.
This information is used to calculate an interval estimate for the
population mean to be from 40 to 56 rooms. What is the level of
confidence of this interval? Report the level of confidence as a
percentage and use 2 decimal places.

A scientific analysis of Jurassic park (first one)
Discuss what was scientifically correct and incorrect. Do you think that the scientifically incorrect part was done out ignorance of the laws of physics/principles of geology or do you think that it was a simple plot device? Why do you think that the creators of these works routinely break the laws of physics/principles of geology? How do you think this affects the public's understanding of science?
