Step by step solution

01

Given Information

We have,

X~N(60,9)

sample size n =25

The random variable of averages isX-and the Random variable of sums is ΣX

02

Explanation Part (a)

The graph is represented,

03

Explanation Part (b)

Given,

The mean isμx=60 and the standard deviation isσx=9

sample size n = 25

Using,

X¯~Nμx,σxnwe get X¯~N60,925

=X-~N(60,1.8)

04

Explanation Part (c)

The probability of the distribution X-~N(60,1.8)be P(X-<60)

Using a calculator we get,

P(X¯<60)=Normalcdf(60,60,1.8)

=0.50

05

Explanation Part (d)

We know,

sample size n = 25and X~N(60,9)

For X-the 30thpercentile is,

P(X-<k)=0.30

X-=invnorm(0.30,60,1.8)=59.06

06

Explanation Part (e)

Sample size n = 25for distribution X~N(60,9)

Calculating role="math" localid="1652457644091" P(56<X-<62)using a calculator,

=P(56<X¯<60)=Normalcdf(56,60,60,1.8)=0.853

07

Explanation Part (f)

Sample size n = 25for distribution X-~N(60,1.8)

Calculating P(18<X-<58)using a calculator,

P(18<X¯<58)=Normalcdf(18,58,60,1.8)=0.133

08

Explanation Part (g)

Sample size n = 25

standard deviation σx=9

mean μx=60

Calculating the mean of the sums μ∑x,

=nμx=25×60=1500

Calculating the standard deviation of sums σ∑x,

role="math" localid="1652458063627" =σx(n)=9×25=45

Hence the distribution is∑X~N(1500,45)

09

Explanation Part (h)

The minimum value for the upper quartile for the sum is,

∑X~N(1500,45)

The upper quartile is 75thpercentile, Using calculator we get,

=invnorm(0.75,1500,45)=1530.35

10

Explanation Part (i)

Using a calculator we find P1400<∑X<1550,

=normalcdf(1400,1550,1500,45)=0.853

An unknown distribution has a mean of 25 and a standard deviation of six. Let X = one object from this distribution. What is the sample size if the standard deviation of ΣX is 42?

A typical adult has an average IQ score of 105with a standard deviation of 20. If 20randomly selected adults are given an IQ test, what are the probability that the sample mean scores will be between 85 and 125 points?

A manufacturer produces 25-pound lifting weights. The lowest actual weight is 24pounds, and the highest is 26pounds. Each weight is equally likely so the distribution of weights is uniform. A sample of100weights is taken.

Draw the graph from Exercise7.37

Based on data from the National Health Survey, women between the ages of 18and 24have an average systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) of 114.8with a standard deviation of 13.1. Systolic blood pressure for women between the ages of 18to 24follow a normal distribution.

a. If one woman from this population is randomly selected, find the probability that her systolic blood pressure is greater than 120.

b. If40women from this population are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean systolic blood pressure is greater than 120.

c. If the sample were four women between the ages of18to 24 and we did not know the original distribution, could the central limit theorem be used?

A manufacturer produces 25-pound lifting weights. The lowest actual weight is 24pounds, and the highest is 26pounds. Each weight is equally likely so the distribution of weights is uniform. A sample of 100weights is taken.

Find the probability that the mean actual weight for the 100 weights is greater than 25.2.
