32. Normal Temperatures In Exercise 15 (Chapter 1 Review), Allen Shoemaker derived a distribution of human body temperatures with a distinct mound shape.9 Suppose we assume that the temperatures of healthy humans are approximately normal with a mean of 37.0°
and a standard deviation of 0.4°.
a. If 130 healthy people are selected at random, what is the probability that the average temperature for these people is 36.80° or lower?
b. Would you consider an average temperature of 36.80° to be an unlikely occurrence, if the true average temperature of healthy people is 37.0°?
Explain.
