You can put this solution on YOUR website!
population mean = 140.
\n" ); document.write( "population standard deviation = 30
\n" ); document.write( "sample size = 75\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "when you are dealing with the mean of a sample, you need to use the standard error.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "standard error = standard deviation divided by square root of smaple size = 30 / sqrt(75) = 3.4641 rounded to 4 decimal places.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "probability that the sample mean will be between 132 and 136 is is equal to .1136 = 11.36%.\r
