Answer:

0.1994 is the required probability.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 166 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 5.3 pounds

Sample size, n = 20

We are given that the distribution of weights is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Standard error due to sampling =

=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{5.3}{\sqrt{20}} = 1.1851

P(sample of 20 boxers is more than 167 pounds)

P( x > 167) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{167 - 166}{1.1851}) = P(z > 0.8438)

= 1 - P(z \leq 0.8438)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x > 167) = 1 - 0.8006= 0.1994 = 19.94\%

0.1994 is the probability that the mean weight of a random sample of 20 boxers is more than 167 pounds
