for a normal population mean of 70 and population standard deviation of 20, what is the probability of obtaining a sample mean equal to or greater than 75 for a random sample of n= 100?
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "standard deviation for sample means of size 100 is 20/sqrt(100) = 2
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "z(75) = (75-70)/2 = 5/2
\n" ); document.write( "P(x-bar >= 75) = P(z >= 5/2) = normalcdf(5/2,100) = 0.006
\n" ); document.write( "==================== \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for a normal population mean of 70 and population standard deviation of 20, what is the probability of obtaining a sample mean equal to or greater than 75 for a random sample of n= 50?
\n" ); document.write( "std = 20/sqrt(50) = 2.83
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "z(75) = (75-70)/2.83 = 1.77
\n" ); document.write( "P(x-bar >= 75) = P(z >= 1.77) = normalcdf(1.77,100) = 0.038
\n" ); document.write( "==================
