The heights of women in the U.S. have been found to be
approximately normally distributed with a mean of 63.02 inches and
the variance to be 9.00 inches.
a) What percent of women are taller than 64.43
inches?
probability =
b) What percent of women are shorter than 61.7
inches?
probability =
c) What percent have heights between 61.7 and
64.43 inches?
probability =

The attendance at baseball games at a certain stadium is normally distributed, with a mean of 26,000 and a standard deviation of 1200. For any given game:
A) What is the probability that attendance is greater than 27,500?
B) What is the probability that attendance will be 26,000 or more?
C) What is the probability of attendance between 25,000 and 28,000?
D) What must the attendance be at the game, for that game's attendance to be in the top 10% of all games?
E) What is the probability that attendance is less than 23,000?

In the flue season, people with vaccine protection have probability of 0.2 to be infected by the flue virus, whereas people without vaccine protection have probability of 0.6 to be infected by the virus. For a given population, the proportion of people being vaccinated is 0.7.
a.) Given that a person is infected by the flue virus, what is the probability that the person has not taken the vaccine?
b.) Randomly select one person from this population, what is the probability that this person is infected by the flue virus?

The probability of getting a false-positive result for a single person, was 0.3%.
What would be the new approximate percentage probability of getting at least one false-positive result, if 650 people had been tested, instead of 550?
What would be the new approximate percentage probability of getting at least one false-positive result, if 550 people are still tested, but the probability of getting a false-positive result for a single person was 0.4% instead of 0.3% ?
