Math Problem Statement
The serum cholesterol levels in women aged 20 to 30 years old are normally distributed with a mean of 176.5 and a standard deviation of 15. Units are in mg/100 mL. If 32 women aged 20 to 30 years old are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean serum cholesterol level is more than 182.
