Analysis of Rafael Nadal's Serve Speed and Growth Distribution of Three-Year-Old Females
This report analyzes the first serve speeds of Rafael Nadal during the 2008 Wimbledon tournament, where his serves averaged 115 mph with a standard deviation of 6 mph. Using the properties of the normal distribution, we will calculate the proportion of serves expected to exceed 120 mph. Additionally, we explore the heights of three-year-old females, which are normally distributed with a mean of 94.5 cm and a standard deviation of 4 cm, and determine the third quartile of this distribution.

Presentation Transcript
In the 2008 Wimbledon tennis tournament, Rafael Nadal averaged 115 miles per hour on his first serves. Assume that the distribution of his first-serve speeds in normal with a mean of 115 mph and a standard deviation of 6 mph. About what proportion of his first serves would you expect to exceed 120 mph?
According to the cdc.gov growth charts, the heights of three-year-old females are approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 94.5 cm and a standard deviation of 4 cm. What is the third quartile of this distribution?
