Question: What yield does the normal distribution estimate would fall at the 80th percentile? Round to the nearest hundredth. Use the data in Wheat, (https://openstax.org/r/Chapter8 Data-Sets)

What yield does the normal distribution estimate would fall at the 80th percentile? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Use the data in "Wheat," (https://openstax.org/r/Chapter8 Data-Sets) which gives the yield of wheat (in bushels) produced over several equally sized plots. (These data were collected as part of an experiment reported in "The experimental error of field trials" (https://openstax.org/r/sets-059) by W.B. Mercer and A.D. Hall).
