Suppose weights, in pounds, of dogs in a city have an unknown distribution with mean 31and standard deviation 5 pounds. A sample of size n=39 is randomly taken from the population and the sum is taken. What is the probability that the resulting sum is between 1180 and 1194 pounds?
Let x be a random variable representing the starting salary of a first-year teacher in a city. A report claims that the mean starting salary of these first-year teachers is greater than $50,000. To test this claim we find that a random sample of 20 teachers has a mean starting salary of $51,425 with a sample standard deviation of $3,549. If you assume that the population mean is $50,000, find the P-value corresponding to the hypothesis that the mean starting salary of the first-year teachers is greater than $50,000.
Use a normal approximation to find the probability of the indicated number of voters. In this case, assume that 109 eligible voters aged 18-24 are randomly selected. Suppose a previous study showed that among eligible voters aged 18-24, 22% of them voted. Probability that fewer than 29 voted The probability that fewer than 29 of 109 eligible voters voted is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Use a normal approximation to find the probability of the indicated number of voters. In this case, assume that 120 eligible voters aged 18-24 are randomly selected. Suppose a previous study showed that among eligible voters aged 18-24, 22% of them voted. Probability that exactly 32 voted The probability that exactly 32 of 120 eligible voters voted is 4.6867 (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Let x be a random variable representing the starting salary of a first-year teacher in a city. A report claims that the mean starting salary of these first-year teachers is less than $52,000. To test this claim we find that a random sample of 25 teachers has a mean starting salary of $51,875 with a sample standard deviation of $1,055. If you assume that the population mean is $52,000, find the P-value corresponding to the hypothesis that the mean starting salary of the first-year teachers is less than $52,000.

In a study of life expectancy in a certain region, the mean age at death was 70 years, and the standard deviation was 5 years. The life expectancy (years) is assumed to follow a skewed distribution. Suppose that a random sample of 45 people from this region is selected. The mean life expectancy (years) of the sample is considered a random variable. What is its standard error? 0.5976 O 2.2361 O 5.2341 O 0.1111
Suppose samples of size 100 are drawn randomly from a normal population that has a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 5. What is the probability of observing a sample mean less than 19? 0.4772 0.3413 0.9772 0.0228 0.0580
Suppose that from the past experience a professor knows that the test score of a student taking his final examination is a random variable with mean 61 and a standard deviation 8.5. how many students would have to take the examination to ensure, with probability at least 0.94, that the class average would be within 3 of 61?
Find the probability that the value of the exponential random variable with mean rate of 3.2 will be having a value lower than 0.808
Given a population mean of 3.4, and a population standard deviation of 1.2, how would I use the central limit theorem to find the probability the mean size given a random size sample of n = 100, would be more than 3?
The proportion of items in a population that possess a specific attribute is known to be 0.25 a. If a simple random sample of size n=100 is selected and the proportion of items in the sample that contain the attribute of interest is 0.30, what is the sampling error b. Referring to part a, what is the probability that a sample size of 100 would have a sample proportion of 0.30 or less if the population proportion is 0.25
