Given a test that is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 12, find:

(a) the probability that a single score drawn at random will be greater than 110

(b) the probability that a sample of 25 scores will have a mean greater than 105

(c) the probability that a sample of 64 scores will have a mean greater than 105

(d) the probability that the mean of a sample of 16 scores will be either less than 95 or greater than 105

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a)  0.2033

(b)  0.0188

(c)  0.0004

(d)  0.095

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) the probability that a score at random is greater than 110 is obtained with a normal distribution of mean 100 and standard deviation 12 can be estimated using the z-table for Z = (110 -  100)/12 = 0.83

So P (X > 110) = P (Z > 0.83) = 0.2033

(b) Probability that a sample of 25 scores will have a mean greater than 105:

we use a standard distribution with the same mean (100) but the standard distribution reduced by a factor of [tex]\sqrt{25} = 5[/tex]. That is a standard deviation of 12/5 = 2.4. which gives a Z-value of (105-100) / 2.4 = 2.08

P (X> 105) = P (Z > 2.08) = 0.0188

(c) Probability that a sample of 64 scores will have a mean greater than 105:

we use a standard distribution with the same mean (100) but the standard deviation reduced by a factor of [tex]\sqrt{64} = 8[/tex]. That is a standard deviation of 12/8 = 1.5. which gives a Z-value of (105-100) / 1.5 = 3.33

P (X> 105) = P (Z > 3.33) = 0.0004

(d) the probability that the mean of a sample of 16 scores will be either less than 95 or greater than 105

This will be the addition of the two probabilities. We use a standard distribution with the same mean (100) but the standard distribution reduced by a factor of [tex]\sqrt{16} = 4[/tex]. That is a standard deviation of 12/4 = 3. which gives us two different Z values to study:

(105-100) / 3 = 1.67

and for X= 95 ==> Z = (95 - 100)/3 = - 1.67

P (X > 105) = P (Z > 1.67) = 0.0475

P (X < 95) = P (Z < -1.67) = 0.0475

which add up to: 0.095.

Answer 2

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a:

a) 0.2033 = 20.33% probability that a single score drawn at random will be greater than 110.

b) 0.0188 = 1.88% probability that a sample of 25 scores will have a mean greater than 105.

c) 0.0004 = 0.04% probability that a sample of 64 scores will have a mean greater than 105.

d) 0.095 = 9.5% probability that the mean of a sample of 16 scores will be either less than 95 or greater than 105.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X. By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

In this problem:

Mean of 100, hence [tex]\mu = 100[/tex].Standard deviation of 12, hence [tex]\sigma = 12[/tex].

Item a:

This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 110, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{110 - 100}{12}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.83[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.83[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7967.

1 - 0.7967 = 0.2033

0.2033 = 20.33% probability that a single score drawn at random will be greater than 110.

Item b:

Sample of 25, hence [tex]n = 25, s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{25}} = 2.4[/tex].

This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 105, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{105 - 100}{2.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.08[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.08[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9812.

1 - 0.9812 = 0.0188

0.0188 = 1.88% probability that a sample of 25 scores will have a mean greater than 105.

Item c:

Sample of 64, hence [tex]n = 64, s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{64}} = 1.5[/tex].

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{105 - 100}{1.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.33[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.33[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9996.

1 - 0.9996 = 0.0004

0.0004 = 0.04% probability that a sample of 64 scores will have a mean greater than 105.

Item d:

Sample of 16, hence [tex]n = 16, s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{16}} = 3[/tex].

Both 105 and 95 are the same distance of the mean, so we find one probability, and multiply by 2.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{105 - 100}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.67[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.67[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9525.

1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475.

2 x 0.0475 = 0.095

0.095 = 9.5% probability that the mean of a sample of 16 scores will be either less than 95 or greater than 105.

The sum of two consecutive integers is 41. What are the two integers?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller of two consecutive integer be x therefore other integer is x+ 1

As per statement the sum of two consecutive integers is 41. To find out the integers.

x + (x + 1) = 41

x + x + 1 = 41

2x + 1 = 41

2x = 41 - 1

2x = 40

x = 40/2

x = 20

The smaller of two consecutive integers is 20, thus other integer is x + 1 = 20 + 1 = 21

The two consecutive integers are 20 and 21

Out of 60 applicants to a university, 40 are from the East. If 20 applicants are to beselected at random, find the probability that:

a. 10 are from East.
b. Not more than 2 are from East.

Answers

Answer:

a. 40С10 * 20С10 / 60С20

b. 1 + (40)(20) + (40C2)(20C2) / 60С20

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of application = 60

Total number of application from east = 40

Total number of application remaining = 20

Number of ways of selecting 20 applicant = 60C20 (Sample space)

a. Probability of 10 are from East.

= (10 from east) * (10 from remaining)

= 40С10 * 20С10 / 60С20

b. Probability of Not more than 2 are from East.

= P(x≤2)

= P(x=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)

= [40С0 * 20С20 / 60С20] + [40С1 * 20С19 / 60С20] + [40С2 * 20С18 / 60С20]

= 1 + (40)(20) + (40C2)(20C2) / 60С20
