Question 614691: For a normal population with population = 70 and population standard deviation = 20, what is the probability of obtaiing a sample mean equal to or greater than 75 for a random sample of n= 225? How do you arrive at the probability by reporting the standard error and the z-score?

For a normal population with population with u = 70 and population standard deviation = 20, what is the probability of obtaining a sample mean equal to or greater than 75 for a random sample of n= 225? How do you arrive at the probability by reporting the standard error and the z-score?
-----
mean of the sample means = 70
std of the sample means = 20/sqrt(225) = 20/15 = 4/3
-----
z(75) = (75-70)/15 = 5/15 = 1/3
----
P(x-bar > 75) = P(z > 1/3) = normalcdf(1/3,100) = 0.3694
