Ответ:
68 would be 2 std. dev. below the mean. Alternatively, we could say that the z-score corresponding to a raw score of 68 is -2.
Using either a calculator with built-in stat. functions, or a table of z-scores, we can find the area under the curve to the left of 68. That area is 0.023.
We could also use the Empirical Rule here. That Rule states that 95% of data whose distribution is normal lie within 2 std. dev. of the mean.
This means that (95%/2), or 47.5% of the data lies between 68 and the mean. To the left of the mean is 0.5 of the total area under the curve. So the percentage of males whose heights are no more than 68 inches is 50% less 45.5%, or 2.5% (answer, just slightly different from the previous result).

To find:
Round $43,569.14 the nearest dollar
Solution:
The number after the decimal is less than 50. So, the amount $43,569.14 rounded to the nearest dollar is $43,569.
Thus, the answer is $43569.
