Answer #1

Normal distribution: P(X < A) = P(Z < (A - mean)/standard deviation)

Mean = 160.5 lb

Standard deviation = 48.3 lb

P(147.4 < X < 212) = P(X < 212) - P(X < 147.4)

= P(Z < (212 - 160.5)/48.3) - P(Z < (147.4 - 160.5)/48.3)

= P(Z < 1.07) - P(Z < -0.27)

= 0.8577 - 0.3936

= 0.4641

= 46.41%

C. Yes, the percentage of women who are excluded, which is complememt to the probability found previously, shows that about half of women are excluded.
