Healthy people have body temperatures that are normally
distributed with a mean of 98.20∘Fand a standard deviation of
0.62∘F.
(a) If a healthy person is randomly selected, what is
the probability that he or she has a temperature above
99.8∘F?
answer:
(b) A hospital wants to select a minimum temperature for
requiring further medical tests. What should that temperature be,
if we want only 1 % of healthy people to exceed it?

b. Since 5% of healthy people would exceed the minimum
temperature for requiring further medical tests, find the z score
with 100%−5%=95% of the total area under the standard normal
curve to its left, rounding to two decimal places. While either
technology or the standard normal distribution table can be used to
find the z score, for the purposes of this problem, use
technology.
