If 85 people are chosen at random, what is the probability that the sample mean of IQ scores will not differ from the population mean by more than 2 points? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Standard error of mean is sigma/sqrt(n)=18/sqrt (85)=1.95
\n" ); document.write( "z (lower) is (98-100)/1.95=-2/1.95=-1.024
\n" ); document.write( "z (upper) is +1.024
\n" ); document.write( "Want probability in between, which is 0.6943.
