Answer:

3.4 kg

0.06 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Birthweight follows a normal distribution :

Mean weighf (m) = 3.4 kg

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.6 kg

Sample size (n) = 100 new born babies

calculate the sample mean birth weight for each sample. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution

The sample mean birth weight = population mean birth weight for a normal distribution according to the central Limit theorem.

Hence, sample mean birth weight = 3.4kg

Standard deviation of sampling distribution = standard error = σ/√n

0.6 / √100

= 0.6 / 10

= 0.06 kg

Jenna earns $7.75 per hour working at the mall. If Jenna worked 24 1/5 hours last week, how much did she earn before taxes were
Katyanochek1 [597]
24 1/5 is equal to 24.2

Multiply 24.2 by 7.75

24.2* 7.75 = 187.55

So she made $187.55 before taxes
