Question 1049760: The average life of a bread making machine is 7 years with a standard deviation of 1 year. assuming that lives of these machines follow approximately a normal distribution. find (a) the probability that the mean life of a random sample of such machines fall between 6.4 and 7.2 year?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

The average life of a bread making machine is 7 years with a standard deviation of 1 year. assuming that lives of these machines follow approximately a normal distribution. find
(a) the probability that the mean life of a random sample of such machines fall between 6.4 and 7.2 year?
mean of the sample means = 7
std of the sample means = 1/sqrt(n)
----
You have to post the sample size.
