Answer: 95% confidence interval = 20,000 ± 2.12\times\frac{1500}{\sqrt{17} }

( 19228.736 , 20771.263 ) OR ( 19229 , 20771 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size(n) = 17

Sample mean = 20000

Sample standard deviation = 1,500

5% confidence

∴ \frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.025

Degree of freedom (d_{f}) = n-1 = 16

∵ Critical value at ( 0.025 , 16 ) = 2.12

∴ 95% confidence interval = mean ± Z_{c}\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Critical value  at 95% confidence interval = 20,000 ± 2.12\times\frac{1500}{\sqrt{17} }

( 19228.736 , 20771.263 ) OR ( 19229 , 20771 )

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

lowest score a college graduate must earn to qualify for a responsible position is 578

correct option is D. 578

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

mean = 500

standard deviation = 50

distribution = 6 %

to find out

What is the lowest score a college graduate must earn to qualify for a responsible position

solution

we know that here Probability P that is express as

P ( Z > x ) = 100% - 6%      .....................1

so with the help of normal table

here value of Z is =  1.55 from cumulative probability 0.94

so by z score formula here x will be

x = z × standard deviation +  mean    ................2

so put here value

x = 1.55 × 50 + 500

x = 577.7387 ~ 578

so lowest score a college graduate must earn to qualify for a responsible position is 578
