Calculations in the Bivariate Normal Distribution James H. Steiger

Problem 1 Suppose that, for adult males, heights and weights have a distribution which is approximately bivariate normal. Heights have a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 2.5. Weights have a mean of 150 and a standard deviation of 25. The correlation between height and weight is.60. What percentage of men weigh more than 200?

Answer to problem %

Problem 2 What percentage of men are less than 65 inches tall?

Answer to Problem %

Problem 3 What percentage of men who are exactly 75 inches tall weigh less than 170 pounds?

Answer to Problem %

Problem 4 What percentage of men who weigh 210 pounds are less than 70 inches tall?

Answer to Problem %

Problem 5 Suppose you are 78 inches tall (and male). If you weigh 230 pounds, what is the percentile rank of your weight among people the same height as you?
