A video game company surveys a random sample of 225 of its best customer and finds that the average gamer spends $606 a year on

games, with a standard deviation of $62. Another company is also interested in the amount game consumers spend, and surveys a random sample of 250 gamers, over all interest levels, and finds that the average gamer spends $250 a year on games, with a standard deviation of $15. Why is the second survey more believable than the first?

Answer:

Multi facets

Step-by-step explanation:

First company surveys best customers so they are highest spending

First company standard deviation is high @ $62 so their spends are $606 a year plus or minus $180 (rounded up)

Second company has a Random sample so includes all customers

Second company has larger number of responses

Second company has a range of plus or minus $40

If the distribution is really (5.43,0.54)
defon

Answer:

0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose there was a small typing mistake, so i am going to use the distribution as N (5.43,0.54)

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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.

The general format of the normal distribution is:

N(mean, standard deviation)

Which means that:

\mu = 5.43, \sigma = 0.54

What proportion of observations would be less than 5.79?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5.79. So

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

Z = \frac{5.79 - 5.43}{0.54}

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 has a pvalue of 0.7486

0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79
