Question

Suppose the sediment density (g/cm) of a randomly selected specimen from a certain region is normally distributed with mean 2.65 and standard deviation 0.85. If a random sample of 25 specimens is selected, what is the probability that the sample average sediment density is at most 3.00? (b) Between 2.65 and 3.00?

Explanation / Answer

A. Here we will compute z =3-2.65/(0.85/sqrt(n))=2.06

Now P(x<=3)=>P(z<=2.06)=0.9803

B. P(2.65<x<3)=>P(0<z<2.06)=0.4803
