Algebra.Com's Answer #751274 by Boreal(15235) You can put this solution on YOUR website! z=(xbar-mean)/sigma/sqrt(n) \n" ); document.write( "=1/(6.1/sqrt(75) \n" ); document.write( "=sqrt(75)/6.1=1.42 \n" ); document.write( "0.0778 is the probability, about 1 in 14. This would be uncommon but not real unusual. If one uses the artificial 5% significance level, it would not reach significance. \n" ); document.write( " |
