Question
If you flip a coin 100 times, the number of heads you will get is normally distributed (or very close to being normally distributed), with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 5. A man who is seven feet tall would be about as unlikely as flipping a coin 100 times and getting how many heads?
Group of answer choices
A. 64
B. 73
C. 92
D. We cannot compare coin flips with height, because everybody has a certain height, but coin flips are uncertain.
