7 0

Answer:

27/50

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the two decimals in units in 0.54 and put it over 100. You will get 54/100. After that simplify 54/100 by dividing both units in the fraction by 2.

According to 2013 report from Population Reference Bureau, the mean travel time to work of workers ages 16 and older who did not

gregori [183]

Answer:

a) 48.80% probability that his travel time to work is less than 30 minutes

b) The mean is 30.7 minutes and the standard deviation is of 3.83 minutes.

c) 13.13% probability that in a random sample of 36 NJ workers commuting to work, the mean travel time to work is above 35 minutes

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 $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
