Math Problem Statement
A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.2 in. and standard deviation 2.9 in. The survey also found that men's heights are normally distributed with mean 67.6 in. and standard deviation 3.1 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 56 in. and a maximum of 63 in. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. If the height requirements are changed to exclude only the tallest 50% of men and the shortest 5% of men, what are the new height requirements?
