Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Z=\frac{x-mu}{\sigma }[/tex]

X - Heights of women aged 20 to 29: X is N(64, 2.7)

Y - Heights of men aged 20 to 29: X is N(69.3, 2.8)

a) X=6'=72"

Z=[tex]\frac{72-64}{2.7} =2.963[/tex]

b) Y = 72"

z=[tex]\frac{72-69.3}{2.8} =0.965[/tex]

c) 72' women can be taken as very tall but men moderately taller than average

d) Y<5'5" =65"

Z<[tex]\frac{65-69.3}{2.8} =-1.536[/tex]

e) X>73"

Z>[tex]\frac{73-64}{2.7} =3.33[/tex]

Almost 0% can be taken

f) IQR =Q3-Q1
