Question 407231: The mean weight of loads of brick is 46.0 tons with a standard deviation of 8 tons. 25 loads are chosen at random for a weight check. Find the probability that the mean weight of those loads is less than 44.24 tons. Assume that the variable is normally distributed. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The mean weight of loads of brick is 46.0 tons with a standard deviation of 8 tons. 25 loads are chosen at random for a weight check. Find the probability that the mean weight of those loads is less than 44.24 tons. Assume that the variable is normally distributed.
----------
t(44.24) = (44.24-46)/[8/sqrt(25)] = -1.1
------
P(x < 44.24) = P(t< -1.1 when df = 24) = 0.1411
