Suppose that the systolic blood pressure of healthy adults is normally distributed with mean $mu = 112$ mmHg and standard deviation $sigma = 10$ mmHg. Enter all answers as decimals and to four decimal places as read from Table Z. What proportion (as a decimal) of healthy adults have systolic blood pressure less than 100 mmHg? What proportion (as a decimal) of healthy adults have systolic blood pressure greater than 130 mmHg? What proportion (as a decimal) of healthy adults have systolic blood pressure between 110 mmHg and 120 mmHg?

Systolic blood pressure in healthy adults is normally distributed with mean 112 mmHg and standard deviation 10 mmHg. You take 15 healthy adult patient blood pressure readings and find that the average is 110 mmHg and the standard deviation is 12 mmHg. Compute the standard error. Round to two decimal places (the hundredths place).

Systolic blood pressure in adults is normally distributed with a mean of 112 mmHg and a standard deviation of 10 mmHg. What is the probability that an adult has a systolic blood pressure of at least 125 mmHg?

The systolic blood pressure $X$ of 30 -year-old men is approximately normally distributed with a mean of $123 \mathrm{mmHg}$ and standard deviation of $6 \mathrm{mmHg}$. (a) Find the probability that the blood pressure of a randomly selected 30-year-old man exceeds 127 $\mathrm{mmHg}$ (b) Out of 250 randomly selected men of 30 years old, find the probability that the blood pressure of at least 80 of them is more than 127 . Use the normal approximation to the binomial to find the answer.
