The cost of unleaded gasoline in the Bay Area once followed an unknown distribution with a mean of and a standard deviation of . Sixteen gas stations from the Bay Area are randomly chosen. We are interested in the average cost of gasoline for the gas stations. The distribution to use for the average cost of gasoline for the gas stations is:
a.
b.
c.
d.
81. The percentile sample average wait time (in minutes) for a sample of 100 riders is:
a.
b.
c.
d.
70. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the distribution for averages?
a. The mean, median, and mode are equal.
b. The area under the curve is one.

Find the th percentile for the sums.
Based on data from the National Health Survey, women between the ages of and have an average systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) of with a standard deviation of . Systolic blood pressure for women between the ages of to follow a normal distribution.
a. If one woman from this population is randomly selected, find the probability that her systolic blood pressure is greater than
b. Ifwomen from this population are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean systolic blood pressure is greater than .
c. If the sample were four women between the ages ofto and we did not know the original distribution, could the central limit theorem be used?
