Instructions: Assume that the distribution for the following scenario is normal. Use the standard normal table to find the probability. Round z-scores to the nearest hundredth. Do not round the probability from the table. The average daily jail population in the United States is 618,319. If the distribution is normal and the standard deviation is 50,200, find the probability that on a randomly selected day, the jail population is: Between 500,000 and 600,000 P(500, 000 < x < 600, 000) = P( < z <

Internet Service Providers The amount that households pay service providers for access to the Internet varies quite a bit, but the mean monthly fee is $50 and the standard deviation is $20. The distribution is not Normal: many households pay a low rate as part of a bundle with phone or television service, but some pay much more for Internet only or for faster connections. A sample survey asks an SRS of 50 households with Internet access how much they pay. Let x be the mean amount paid. 1. Explain why you can't determine the probability that the amount a randomly selected household pays for access to the Internet exceeds $55. 2. What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x ? 3. What is the shape of the sampling distribution of x ? Justify your answer. 4. Find the probability that the average fee paid by the sample of households exceeds $55.

Use the Empirical Rule. The mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is 71 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 5 miles per hour. Estimate the percent of vehicles whose speeds are between 61 miles per hour and 81 miles per hour. (Assume the data set has a bell-shaped distribution.) Approximately ________ % of vehicles travel between 61 miles per hour and 81 miles per hour.
