26. Hatchery Fish: Length A large tank of fish from a hatchery is being deliv-ered to a lake. The hatchery claims that the mean length of fish in the tank is15 inches, and the standard deviation is 2 inches. A random sample of 36 fishis taken fromn the tank. Let x be the mean sample length of these fish.

The median annual cost of auto insurance is $ 939 (According to DACO). Suppose the standard deviation is o = $ 241. What is the probability that in a simple random sample of auto insurance policies the sample mean differs more than $ 70.42 from the population mean if the sample size is 45? You must calculate the probability that the difference between the average cost in the sample and the average annual cost do not differ by $ 70.42. Find the probability that P (\ µ - š | 0) = P (-70.42 H-iS 70.42) Select one: a. The probability is 99% that the auto policy will not differ by $ 70.42 from the average annual cost. b. The probability is 50% that the auto policy will not differ by $ 70.42 from the average annual cost. c. The probability is 80% that the auto policy will not differ by $ 70.42 from the average annual cost. d. The probability is 70% that the auto policy will not differ by $ 70.42 from the average annual cost. e. The probability is 95% that the auto policy will not differ by $…
