The amount of calories adult males consume at dinner follows a normal distribution with a mean of 1200 calories and a standard deviation of 200 calories. If I decide to diet and try to match my calorie intake to the point that identifies the highest 20% mark in the distribution, how many calories would I be consuming? 1305 calories 1368 calories 1216 calories 1032 calories

The number of calories consumed by customers at the Chinese buffet is normally distributed with mean 2961 and standard deviation 672. One randomly selected customer is observed to see how many calories X that customer consumes. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible. a. What is the distribution of X? X ~ N(2961, 672) b. Find the probability that the customer consumes fewer than 2726 calories. c. What proportion of the customers consumed more than 3164 calories?
