Answer:

Postcards bought was 9

Step-by-step explanation:

where,

P = total number of postcards
D = days of vacation = 3 days

⟼ P = 3D

prince number of days of vacation is 3 therefore we multiply 3 by 3

⟼ P = 3(3)

multiply 3 by 3

⟼ P = 9

$\therefore$ Jared bought 9 postcards

In a recent year, Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean score of 276.1 and a s

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

a) $\mu_{\bar x} =\mu = 276.1$

$\sigma_{\bar x} =\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{34.4}{\sqrt{64}}=4.3$

b) From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu=276.1, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=4.3)$

c) $P(\bar X \geq 285)=P(Z\geq \frac{285-276.1}{4.3}=2.070)$

$P(Z\geq2.070)=1-P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable the represent the scores for the test analyzed. We know that:

$\mu=E(X) = 276.1 , \sigma=Sd(X) = 34.4$

And we select a sample size of 64.

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Part a

For this case the mean and standard error for the sample mean would be given by:

$\mu_{\bar x} =\mu = 276.1$

$\sigma_{\bar x} =\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{34.4}{\sqrt{64}}=4.3$

Part b

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu=276.1, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=4.3)$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(\bar X \geq 285)$
