In Exercise 5.1 , we determined that the joint distribution of $Y_{1}$, the number of contracts awarded to firm $\mathrm{A},$ and $Y_{2},$ the number of contracts awarded to firm $\mathrm{B}$, is given by the entries in the following table. Find $\operatorname{Cov}\left(Y_{1}, Y_{2}\right) .$ Does it surprise you that $\operatorname{Cov}\left(Y_{1}, Y_{2}\right)$ is negative? Why?

Assume that women's heights are normally distributed with a mean given by μ = 64.6 in, and a standard deviation given by σ = 2.8 in. (a) If 1 woman is randomly selected, find the probability that her height is less than 65 in. (b) If 49 women are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean height less than 65 in. (a) The probability is approximately (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
