Question
According to a recent poll, 26% of adults in a certain area have high levels of cholesterol. They report that such elevated levels "could be financially devastating to the
regions healthcare system" and are a major concern to health insurance providers. Assume the standard deviation from the recent studies is accurate and known.
According to recent studies, cholesterol levels in healthy adults from the area average about 206 mg/dL, with a standard deviation of about 35 mg/dL, and are roughly
Normally distributed. If the cholesterol levels of a sample of 40 healthy adults from the region is taken, answer parts (a) through (d).
(a) What is the probability that the mean cholesterol level of the sample will be no more than 206?
P(y≤206) .500 (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
(b) What is the probability that the mean cholesterol level of the sample will be between 201 and 211?
P(201 <y<211)= (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
