mean is 0.75
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "we do not know the standard deviation of the population, so we will use the standard error
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "standard error = square root(0.75 * (1-0.75) / 160) = 0.0342
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "the sample size is greater than 30, so we can use the normal distribution
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "129/160 is approximately 0.8062
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "we want the probability that X is less than 0.8062
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "z-score = (0.8062 - 0.75)/0.0342 is approximately 1.64
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "using table of z-scores, we find the probability associated with z-score of 1.64
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "************************************
\n" ); document.write( "Probability ( X < 0.8062 ) = 0.9495
