Adult male height is normally distributed with a mean of 69.4 inches and a standard deviation of 2.32 inches. If an adult male is randomly selected, what is the probability that the adult male has a height between 67.5 and 70.8 inches? Round your final answer to four decimal places.

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

We are interested on this probability

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

And we can find this probability with this difference:

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.
