For a standardized psychology examination intended for psychology majors, the historical data show that scores have a mean of 52

0 and a standard deviation of 180. The grading process of this year's exam has just begun. The average score of the 35 exams graded so far is 518. What is the probability that a sample of the 35 exams will have a mean score of 518 or more if the exam scores follow the same distribution as in the past? Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least three decimal places.

Answer:

the probability that a sample of the 35 exams will have a mean score of 518 or more is <em> 0.934 </em>or<em> 93.4%</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is s z-test because we have been given a sample that is large   (greater than 30) and also a standard deviation. The z-test compares sample results and normal distributions. Therefore, the z-statistic is:

(520 - 518) / (180/√35)

= 0.0657

Therefore, the probability is:

P(X ≥ 0.0657) = 1 - P(X < 0.0657)

where

  • X is the value to be standardised

Thus,

P(X ≥ 0.0657) = 1 - (520 - 518) / (180/√35)

                       = 1 - 0.0657

                       = 0.934

Therefore,  the probability that a sample of the 35 exams will have a mean score of 518 or more is <em>0.934 or 93.4%</em>.

N76 [4]

Answer:65ft

Step-by-step explanation:area of a square is =s^2

Therefore 4225=s^2

Find the square root of both sides

√4225=√s^2

Therefore s=65

Each side is 65ft

A survey found that 89% of a random sample of 1024 American adults approved of cloning endangered animals. Find the margin of er
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The margin of error for the survey is 0.016

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 1024

Sample proportion:

\hat{p} = 89\% = 0.89

We have to find the margin of error associated with a 90% Confidence interval.

Formula for margin of error:

z_{stat}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64

Putting the values, we get:

M.E = 1.64\times (\sqrt{\dfrac{0.89(1-0.89)}{1024}})\\\\M.E=0.016

Thus, the margin of error for the survey is 0.016

The heights of students in a class are normally distributed with mean 55 inches and standard deviation 5 inches. Use the Empiric
maks197457 [2]

Answer:  c)[50,60]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical rule says that , About 68% of the population lies with the one standard deviation from the mean (For normally distribution).

We are given that , The heights of students in a class are normally distributed with mean 55 inches and standard deviation 5 inches.

Then by Empirical rule, about 68% of the heights of students lies between one standard deviation from mean.

i.e. about 68% of the heights of students lies between \text{Mean}\pm\text{Standard deviation}

i.e. about 68% of the heights of students lies between 55\pm5

Here, 55\pm5=(55-5, 55+5)=(50,60)

i.e.  The required interval that contains the middle 68% of the heights. = [50,60]

Hence, the correct answer is c) (50,60)
