Algebra.Com's Answer #762688 by VFBundy(438) You can put this solution on YOUR website! SD of the sample = SD of the population divided by the square root of the number of items in the sample: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "SD of the sample = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Take 7500 and subtract the mean of 7200 to get a result of 300. Divide 300 by the SD of the sample (219.09) to get a result of 1.37. Look up +1.37 on a z-table to get a result of 0.9147. This means there is a 0.9147 probability that the mean daily revenue for the next 30 days will be below $7500. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Take 7000 and subtract the mean of 7200 to get a result of -200. Divide -200 by the SD of the sample (219.09) to get a result of -0.91. Look up -0.91 on a z-table to get a result of 0.1814. This means there is a 0.1814 probability that the mean daily revenue for the next 30 days will be below $7000. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "To find out the probability that the mean daily revenue for the next 30 days will be between $7000 and $7500, simply subtract the probability that the mean daily revenue is less than $7000 (0.1814) from the probability that the mean daily revenue is less than $7500 (0.9147) to get a result of 0.7333. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "So, the answer is (C). |
