Intellectual development (Perry) scores were determined for 21 students in a first-year, project-based design course. (Recall th
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval is (3.0493, 3.4907).

We are 99% sure that the true mean of the students Perry score is in the above interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

Our sample size is 21.

The first step to solve this problem is finding our degrees of freedom, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 21-1 = 20.

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level \alpha and divide by 2. So:

\frac{1-0.99}{2} = \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.005

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 20 and 0.005 in the two-sided t-distribution table, we have T = 2.528

Now, we find the standard deviation of the sample. This is the division of the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. So

s = \frac{0.40}{\sqrt{21}} = 0.0873

Now, we multiply T and s

M = 2.528*0.0873 = 0.2207

Then

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So:

L = 3.27 - 0.2207 = 3.0493

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So:

LCL = 3.27 + 0.2207 = 3.4907

The 99% confidence interval is (3.0493, 3.4907).

Interpretation:

We are 99% sure that the true mean of the students Perry score is in the above interval.

The scores on the GMAT entrance exam at an MBA program in the Central Valley of California are normally distributed with a mean
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

58.32% probability that a randomly selected application will report a GMAT score of less than 600

93.51%  probability that a sample of 50 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

98.38% probability that a sample of 100 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

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 normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 pvalue, 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 \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 591, \sigma = 42

What is the probability that a randomly selected application will report a GMAT score of less than 600?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 600. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{600 - 591}{42}

Z = 0.21

Z = 0.21 has a pvalue of 0.5832

58.32% probability that a randomly selected application will report a GMAT score of less than 600

What is the probability that a sample of 50 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600?

Now we have n = 50, s = \frac{42}{\sqrt{50}} = 5.94

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 600. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{600 - 591}{5.94}

Z = 1.515

Z = 1.515 has a pvalue of 0.9351

93.51%  probability that a sample of 50 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

What is the probability that a sample of 100 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600?

Now we have n = 50, s = \frac{42}{\sqrt{100}} = 4.2

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{600 - 591}{4.2}

Z = 2.14

Z = 2.14 has a pvalue of 0.9838

98.38% probability that a sample of 100 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600
