In a certain city, the average 20- to 29-year old man is 69.8 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 3.2 inches, while the average 20- to 29-year old woman is 66.5 inches tall, with a standard
deviation of 3.9 inches. Who is relatively taller, a 75-inch man or a 70-inch woman?
Find the corresponding z-scores. Who is relatively taller, a 75-inch man or a 70-inch woman? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
A. The z-score for the woman, \boxed{\text{ }}, is smaller than the z-score for the man, \boxed{\text{ }}, so she is relatively taller.
B. The z-score for the man, \boxed{\text{ }}, is smaller than the z-score for the woman, \boxed{\text{ }}, so he is relatively taller.
C. The z-score for the woman, \boxed{\text{ }}, is larger than the z-score for the man, \boxed{\text{ }}, so she is relatively taller.
D. The z-score for the man, \boxed{\text{ }}, is larger than the z-score for the woman, \boxed{\text{ }}, so he is relatively taller.
