6.98
article by F. Costa and F. Perez-Miles titled "Reproductive Biology
by a shell, or carapace. From a recent
of Uruguayan Theraphosids" (The Journal of Arachnology, Vol. 30,
No. 3, pp. 571-587), we find that the carapace length of the adult
male G. mollicoma is normally distributed with mean 18.14 mm and
standard deviation 1.76 mm.
a. Find the percentage of adult male G. mollicoma that have carapace
length between 16 mm and 17 mm.
b. Find the percentage of adult male G. mollicoma that have carapace
length exceeding 19 mm.
c. Determine and interpret the quartiles for carapace length of the
adult male G. mollicoma.
d. Obtain and interpret the 95th percentile for carapace length of the
adult male G. mollicoma.
6.98 Serum Cholesterol Levels. According to the National Health
and Nutrition Examination Survey, published by the National Center
for Health Statistics, the serum (noncellular portion of blood) total
cholesterol level of U.S. females 20 years old or older is normally
distributed with a mean of 206 mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter) and
a standard deviation of 44.7 mg/dL.
a. Determine the percentage of U.S. females 20 years old or older
who have a serum total cholesterol level between 150 mg/dL and
250 mg/dL.
