It has been proved that vegetarian Seventh Day Adventist in California lived an average of 4-10 years longer than other people in the same society but different lifestyles (and also in the world). Also their chances of contracting the above mentioned diseases are significantly lower. Suppose the average age at death of a Californian Adventist is 85.5 with a standard deviation of 5.6, what is the probability that one randomly sampled at death lived between 80 and 95 years? Select one: a. 0.1190 b. 0.7919 c. 0.2081 d. 0.3810

The producer of a weight-loss pill advertises that people who use the pill lose, after one week, an average (mean) of 1.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.95 pounds. In a recent study, a group of 55 people who used this pill were interviewed. The study revealed that these people lost a mean of 1.9 pounds after one week. If the producer's claim is correct, what is the probability that the mean weight loss after one week on this pill for a random sample of 55 individuals will be 1.9 pounds or less? Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least three decimal places.

The producer of a weight-loss pill advertises that people who use the pill lose, after one week, an average (mean) of 1.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 1.05 pounds.
