Human body temperatures have a mean of 98.20° F and a standard deviation of 0.62° F. Sally's temperature can be described by z = -1.5. What is her temperature? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Sally's temperature is 97.27 °F.

Step-by-step explanation:

All the information given in the question tells us that the human body temperatures are normally distributed with a population's mean = 98.20°F and a standard deviation = 0.62°F.

The question gives us Sally's temperature in a z-score. We have to remember that the standard normal distribution is a particular case of a normal distribution where the mean = 0 and the standard deviation = 1.

Using the standard normal distribution, we can determine every probability associated with a normal distribution "transforming" the raw scores, coming from normally distributed data, into z-scores.

A z-score gives us the distance from the population's mean and is in standard deviation units. So, a z = 1.5 tells us that the value is 1.5 standard deviations above the mean. Conversely, a z = -1.5 tells us that the raw score is also 1.5 standard deviation from the mean, but in the opposite direction, that is, below the mean.

The formula for a z-score is as follows:

Then to find x (or the raw score, that is, Sally's temperature), we need to solve the formula (1) for it to finally solve the question.

Then

Thus, Sally's temperature is °F (rounding the answer to the nearest hundredth).

Sally's temperature is 97.27° F .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Human body temperatures have a mean of 98.20° F and a standard deviation of 0.62° F.

Let X = Human body temperatures

So, X ~ N()

The z score probability distribution is given by;

            Z = ~ N(0,1)

Let Sally's temperature be x ; we are given that Sally's temperature can be described by z = -1.5; i.e.;

           -1.5 =

              x = 98.20 - (1.5 * 0.62)

              x = 98.20 - 0.93 = 97.27° F

Therefore, Sally's temperature is 97.27° F .

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)
