We know that x has a normal distribution with a mean of µ = $67.50 and a standard deviation of σ = $16.09. What is the probability that the mean amount of five cell phone bills taken at random is between $63.50 and $71.50? \n" ); document.write( "

Since the sample size is < 30, we have to calculate a std dev for the sample size of 5,
\n" ); document.write( "sample std dev = st dev of population / square root(5) = 16.09 / 2.236067977 = 7.195666753
\n" ); document.write( "now calculate z-values
\n" ); document.write( "z1-value = (63.50 - 67.50) / 7.195666753 = −0.555890112 = approx -0.56
\n" ); document.write( "z2-value = (71.50 - 67.50) / 7.195666753 = 0.555890112 = approx 0.56
\n" ); document.write( "P( 63.50 < X < 71.50 ) = P( X < 71.50 ) - P( X < 63.50)
\n" ); document.write( "consult z-table for associated probabilities
\n" ); document.write( "P( 63.50 < X < 71.50 ) = 0.7123 - 0.2877 = 0.4246
\n" ); document.write( "
