12w - 13 - 11w + 24 = 77

combine like terms

w + 11 = 77

subtract 11 from both sides

w = 66

Hi!

<h3>Combine like terms and simplify. </h3>

(12w - 11w) (- 13 + 24) = 77

1w + 11 = 77

<h3>We need to isolate w on one side to get the answer. Subtract 11 from both sides. </h3>

1w + 11 - 11 = 77 - 11

<h2>The answer is w = 66</h2>

Hope this helps! :)

The mean of a population is 74 and the standard deviation is 15. The shape of the population is unknown. Determine the probabili

Lena [83]

Answer:

a) 0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.

b) 0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.

c) 0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

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 normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, 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 $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
