The red blood cell count for a population of adult males can be approximated by a normal distribution, with a mean of 5.4 million cells per microliter and a standard deviation of 0.4 million cells per microliter: a. What percentage of adult males have red blood cell count greater than 6 million? b. What percentage of adult males have red blood cell count between 5 and 6 million? c. What is the minimum red blood cell count that can be in the top 25% of counts? d. What is the maximum red blood cell count that can be in the bottom 15% of counts? e. If a selected adult males red blood count is in the 85th percentile, find the actual blood count. f. Extra credit: Find the middle range for the middle 30% of the red blood cell count for adult males.
