A national dental association conducted a survey to find the average (mean) amount of time dentists spend on dental fillings per

week. Based on a simple random sample, they surveyed 144 dentists. The statistics showed that dentists spent an average of 20 hours per week on fillings with a standard deviation of 10 hours. What is the probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours?

Answer:

The probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours is 0.0082

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours, we need to calculate the z-score of this sample mean 18. And the probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours is P(z<z(18)).

Z-score can be calculated as follows:

z(18)=\frac{X-M}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } } where

  • X is the sample mean (18 hours)
  • M is the average hours dentists spend per week on fillings (20 hours)
  • s is the standard deviation (10 hours)
  • N is the sample size (144)

Putting the numbers, we get:

z(18)=\frac{18-20}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{144} } }=-2.4

Using z- table we can find that P(z<z(18)) = 0.0082

The graphed function, F(x), has a value greater than 0 over the intervals (-0.7, 0.76) and (0.76,  ∞) . F(x) > 0 over the intervals (-0.7, 0.76) and (0.76, ∞) is the correct statement [Fourth choice].

About a Graphed Function

The function graph of an object F stands for the set of all points in the plane that are (x, f(x)). The graph of f is also known as the graph of y = f. (x). The graph of an equation is thus a specific example of the graph of a function. A graphed function is a function that has been drawn out on a graph.

It is evident from the attached graph that the supplied function exceeds 0 for the following range:

-0.7 < F(x) < 0.76

And, 0.76 < F(x) < ∞

As a result, the intervals for which the given graphed function, F(x) is greater than 0 are as follows,

(-0.7, 0.76) and (0.76, ∞)
