The diameters of apples in a certain orchard are normally distributed with a mean of 4.77 inches and a standard deviation of 0.43 inches. Show all work.
\n" ); document.write( "(A) What percentage of apples in this orchard is larger than 4.71 inches?
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "z(4.71) = (4.71-4.77)/0.43 = -0.06/0.43 = -0.1395
\n" ); document.write( "P(x > 4.71) = P(z > -0.1395) = normalcdf(-0.1395,100) = 0.5555
\n" ); document.write( "====================================================================
\n" ); document.write( "(B) A random sample of 100 apples is gathered and the mean diameter is calculated. What is the probability that the sample mean is greater than 4.71 inches?
\n" ); document.write( "x-bar = 4.71
\n" ); document.write( "std for the distribution of sample means when n = 100 = 0.43/sqrt(100)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "z(4.71) = (4.71-4.77)/(0.43/sqrt(100)) = -1.3953
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "P(x-bar > 4.71) = P(z > -1.3953) = normalcdf(-1.3953,100) = 0.9185
\n" ); document.write( "===========================
