A normal distribution has a mean of µ = 100 with σ = 20. If one score is randomly selected from this distribution, what is the probability that the score will have a value between X = 90 and X = 110?
Q1. Researchers developed a "cat IQ test" and find that the population of cats in the United States has a mean score of µ = 25 on this test with a standard deviation of σ = 3. You decide to test a sample of n = 45 cats to do some research about whether some breeds are smarter. What is the expected value of the sampling distribution of the mean?

A professor believes the students in a statistics class this term are more creative than most other students attending the university. A previous study found that students at the university had a mean score of 35 on a standard creativity test, and the current class has an average score of 40 on this scale with an estimated population standard deviation of 7. The standard deviation of the distribution of means is 1.63. The t score is (40 – 35) / 7 = 0.71 (40 – 35) / 1.63 = 3.07 (40 – 35) / 72 = 5 / 49 = 0.10 (40 – 35) / 1.632 = 5 / 2.66 = 1.88
