To interpret his finding, he needs to calculate the probability that a sample of 25 graduates would have a mean of $750 or less when the population mean is $800 and the standard deviation is $100. To rebut the dean's claim, he needs to find out

In the advertisements for a large university, the dean of the School of Business claims that the average salary of the school’s graduates one year after graduation is $770 per week with a standard deviation of $100.

He discovers the sample mean to be $750.
To interpret his finding, he needs to calculate the
probability that a sample of 25 graduates would have a mean of $750 or less when the population mean is $800 and the standard deviation is $100.To rebut the dean's claim, he needs to find out
P (sample mean is less than 770)
P (sample mean is less than 750)
P (sample mean is less than 800)
P (sample mean is greater than 770)
