A normally distributed population with 200 elements has a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 10. The probability that the mean of a sample of 25 elements taken from this population will be smaller than 56 is: \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "z(56) = (56-60)/[10/sqrt(25)] = -4/2 = -2 \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "P(x-bar < 56) = P(z < -2) = normalcdf(-100,-2) = 0.0228 \n" ); document.write( "-------------- \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Select one: \n" ); document.write( "a. 0.0166. \n" ); document.write( "b. 0.0228. \n" ); document.write( "c. 0.3708. \n" ); document.write( "d. 0.0394. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
