Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take appropriately huge random-samples (n > 30) from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample- means will be approximately normally-distributed.

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

\mu_{\bar x}=\mu

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 200

<em>σ</em> = 19.0

Population is skewed.

As the sample selected is quite large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 200 > 30 the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the distribution of the sample mean by the normal distribution.

So, \bar X\sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma^{2}}{n}).

Then to construct a confidence interval for mean we will use a <em>z</em>-interval.

And for 95% confidence level we will compute the critical value of <em>z</em>, i.e. z_{\alpha/2}.

Thus, the correct option is (a).

HELP PLEASE 3. Simplify the expression (5 points)<br> [(7 + 3) • 5 - 4] = 2 + 2
krok68 [10]

Answer: 46 or 46=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Do what's in the Parenthesis first so 7+2=10 which now give you the equation

[10x 5-4]=2+2

Now we Multiply so we do 10x5 which is 50 so that now gives us the equation[50-4]=2+2

Now we add the 2+2 which is 4 giving us the equation [50-4]=4

Now we subtract 50-4 giving 46

46=4
