Base of the exponential equation should be (-1).

And finally the product or result should also be a negative number.

Let us take a variable for n natural numbers.

(Note: All positive whole numbers are called natural numbers that is 1,2,3,4,5,....).

In order to get the expression, we need to find the expession for odd natural numbers.

We know,

The expession for odd natural numbers is given by = 2n-1.

Where n= 1,2,3,4,5...

If we have an odd exponent of a negative number, it always gives a negative number.

We got, base = -1 ( a negative number) and

exponent = (2n-1) ........... expression for odd number.

Therefore, we could write final exponential expression that would give a negative for all natural numbers.

$(-1)^{2n-1}$

a) 99.24% chance HLI will find a sample mean between 5.5 and 7.1 hours.

b) 81.64% probability that the sample mean will be between 5.9 and 6.7 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, it is important to know the Normal probability distribution and the Central Limit Theorem

Normal probability distribution

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
