Answer:
a) 0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.
b) 0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.
c) 0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
The mean of a population is 74 and the standard deviation is 15.
This means that
Question a:
Sample of 36 means that
This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 78. So
By the Central Limit Theorem
has a pvalue of 0.9452
1 - 0.9452 = 0.0548
0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.
Question b:
Sample of 150 means that
This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 77 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 71. So
X = 77
has a pvalue of 0.9929
X = 71
has a pvalue of 0.0071
0.9929 - 0.0071 = 0.9858
0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.
c. A random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2
Sample size of 219 means that
This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 74.2. So
has a pvalue of 0.5793
0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2
Answer:
Answer C --> y = 1/3 sin(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are finding the inverse of a function, you are trying to obtain the function that applied to the one given gives you as result EXACTLY "x".
You know that the function sin(x) is the inverse of Arcsin(x), because when you applied it as follows, you obtain x (by cancelling out Arcsin and "liberating" the argument inside it: "x") :
But in this case applying sin (x) to Arcsin (3x) will not render just x, because the argument that ARcsin is carrying is not just "x" but "3x":
So we need to divide by 3 as well in order to obtain just "x" after applying our inverse. The function that does such is the third one listed (C), sinc it also has a multiplicative 1/3 that will cancel the factor 3 we want to get rid of.
