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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is a bit sloppy. In higher math courses it would not be permitted. I'll give you the general rule that applies to this question -- sort of.

If you have a triangle that hast angles of 100 50 and 30

The largest side will be opposite the 100 degree angle.

The smallest side will be opposite the 30 degree angle.

So for the question, you are intended to say that CD > AB because CD is opposite a 43 degree angle and AB is opposite a 40 degree angle.

So the answer is Since 43 > 40 then CD>AB
