Answer: D) all American school teachers.

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics,  A population is a very large set of individuals or values that belong to a specified group established by researcher.

A sample is a subset of population that represents the entire population in research.

Given : We want to know the opinions of American school teachers about establishing a national test for high school graduation.

Clearly , by the above definition

Population =   all American school teachers.

You obtain a list of the members of the National Education Association and mail a questionnaire to 2500 teachers chosen at random from this list.

sample = 2500 teachers chosen at random from this list.

Hence, the intended population is all American school teachers.

Thus , the correct answer is D) all American school teachers.

yan [13]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if an unknown population is selected with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from this population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally.  

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}}

a

The expected value of the sample mean of their weights is same as the population mean, <em>μ</em> = 1515 lbs.

b

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean weight is:

\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{25}{\sqrt{16}}=6.25

c.

The average weights for a sample of 16 people will result in the total weight exceeding the weight limit of 2500 lbs. is:

\text{Average Weight}=\frac{2500}{16}=156.25

d

Compute the probability that a random sample of 16 persons on the elevator will exceed the weight limit as follows:

P(\bar X > 156.25)=P(\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}>\frac{156.25-151}{6.25})\\\\=P(Z>0.84)\\\\=1-P(Z

During a basketball game a player makes 12 of 18 free throws attempted write the ratio as fraction reduced to the lowest term
umka21 [38]
To make this a fraction, let's put \frac{12}{18} . We can divide both top and bottom by 6, leaving us with \frac{2}{3} . This is as far as we can reduce it, making it your answer. I hope this helps!
