Answer:

The probability that the sample mean is greater than 2.1 but less than 2.6 is 0.2236.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a discrete uniform distribution.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

f(x)=\left \{ {{\frac{1}{3}};\ x=1,2,3 \atop {0;\ \text{otherwise}}} \right.

Then,

a = 1

b = 3

The mean and standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> are:

\mu=\frac{b+a}{2}=\frac{3+1}{2}=2\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(b-a+1)^{2}-1}{12}}=\sqrt{\frac{(3-1+1)^{2}-1}{12}}=0.8165

The sample size is, <em>n</em> = 39.

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have an unknown population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample mean 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}}

As <em>n</em> = 39 > 30, the sampling distribution of sample mean of <em>X</em> will follow a Normal distribution approximately.

Compute the probability that the sample mean is greater than 2.1 but less than 2.6 as follows:

P(2.1

                          =P(0.76

Thus, the probability that the sample mean is greater than 2.1 but less than 2.6 is 0.2236.

Se corta una manzana en 12 partes, se comen ocho partes. Qué fracción simplificada a su mínima expresión representa la cantidad
lakkis [162]

Answer:

A. 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Dado que:

una manzana se corta en 12 partes y se comen ocho partes.

La fracción de manzanas consumidas = 8/12

= 2/3

La fracción de manzanas que quedan = valor original de la manzana que se corta - la fracción de la manzana que se come

La fracción de manzanas que quedan  =1-  \dfrac{8}{12}

La fracción de manzanas que quedan  =\dfrac{12-8}{12}

La fracción de manzanas que quedan =\dfrac{4}{12}

A la fracción más baja; obtenemos = 1/3
