In a recent survey of college professors, it was found that the average amount of money spent on entertainment each week was nor

mally distributed with a mean of $95.25 and a standard deviation of $27.32. What is the probability that the average spending of a sample of 25 randomly-selected professors will exceed $102.50?

Answer:

0.0918

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average amount of money spent on entertainment is normally distributed with mean=μ=95.25 and standard deviation=σ=27.32.

The mean and standard deviation of average spending of sample size 25 are

μxbar=μ=95.25

σxbar=σ/√n=27.32/√25=27.32/5=5.464.

So, the average spending of a sample of 25 randomly-selected professors is normally distributed with mean=μ=95.25 and standard deviation=σ=27.32.

The z-score associated with average spending $102.5

Z=[Xbar-μxbar]/σxbar

Z=[102.5-95.25]/5.464

Z=7.25/5.464

Z=1.3269=1.33

We have to find P(Xbar>102.5).

P(Xbar>102.5)=P(Z>1.33)

P(Xbar>102.5)=P(0<Z<∞)-P(0<Z<1.33)

P(Xbar>102.5)=0.5-0.4082

P(Xbar>102.5)=0.0918.

Thus, the probability that the average spending of a sample of 25 randomly-selected professors will exceed $102.5 is 0.0918.

Simplify. (x6 y3)(−8xy2)(−6x3)
meriva
When simplifying this, we would have to take this little by little in serious steps and not only this, but to also take notice of the use of <u>pemdas</u> and to make sure that we take each step carefully.

We first would <u></u><u>(first)</u> simplify the following:

(((x^6)*(y^3))*(0-(8x*(y^2))))*(0-(2*3x^3)) \\ \\ then \ we \ would \ do . .  . . \\ \\  x^7  \ multiplied \ by \ x^3 \ = x^(^7^ +^ 3^) = \ x^1^0 \\ \\ (last \ step).... \\ \\ 2^3 \   multiplied \ by \ 2^1   = 2^(^3^ +^ 1^) = 2^4 \\ \\ \Longrightarrow \ (your \ answer) \\ \\ \boxed{\bf{  (2^4*3x^1^0y^5)}}
