some hot dogs come in packages of 8.Why would a baker of hot dog buns packages 7 hot dog buns to a package

1 answer:

4 0

The reason as to why the baker had package hotdogs of seven and not eight because they are making consumers buy another package because other people will likely buy eight and if it is only comprise with seven, they will likely buy another package, to have eight hotdogs and not just seven.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$z= \frac{47 -50}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.5$

$z= \frac{53 -50}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.5$

And using a calculator, excel ir the normal standard table we have that:

$P(47 \leq \bar X \leq 53) =P(-1.5 \leq Z \leq 1.5)$

And we can calculate the probability like this: $P(-1.5 \leq Z \leq 1.5) = P(z$ Step-by-step explanation:

A random sample of 36 observations has been drawn from a normal distribution with mean 50 and standard deviation 12. Find the probability that the sample mean is in the interval 47<=X<53. Is the assumption of normality important. Why?

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(50,12)$
