Coffee: The National Coffee Association reported that 61% of U.S. adults drink coffee daily. A random sample of 275 U.S. adults is selected. Round your answers to at least four decimal places as needed. Part 1 of 6 (a) Find the mean μp . The mean μp is 0.61 . Part 2 of 6 (b) Find the standard deviation σp . The standard deviation σp is 0.0294 . Part: 2 / 6 2 of 6 Parts Complete Part 3 of 6 (c) Find the probability that more than 62% of the sampled adults drink coffee daily. The probability that more than 62% of the sampled adults drink coffee daily is
Continuous Probability Distributions
Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.
Normal Distribution
Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!
