The latest available data showed health expenditures were $10,739 per person in the United States, or 17.9% of GDP in 2017 . Use $10,739 as the population mean and suppose a survey research firm will take a sample of 100 people to investigate the nature of their health expenditures. Assume the population standard deviation is $2500. 1) Sketch the sampling distribution of the mean amount of health care expenditures for a sample of 100 people. 2) What is the probability that the sample mean will be greater than $12,000? If the survey research firm reports a sample mean greater than $12,000, would you question whether the firm followed correct sampling procedures? Why or why not?
