Suppose that the mean value of interpupillary distance (the distance between the pupils of the left and right eyes) for adult males is 65 mm and that the population standard deviation is 5 mm.

a. If the distribution of interpupillary distance is normal and a random sample of n = 25 adult males is to be selected, what is the probability that the sample mean distance for these 25 will be between 64 and 67 mm? at least 68 mm?

b. Suppose that a random sample of 100 adult males is to be obtained. Without assuming that interpupillary distance is normally distributed, what is the approximate probability that the sample mean distance will be between 64 and 67 mm? at least 68 mm?
