Answer:
There is a 92.32% probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by less than 633 miles in a sample of 49 tires if the manager is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation
In this problem, we have that:
The operation manager at a tire manufacturing company believes that the mean mileage of a tire is 33,208 miles, with a standard deviation of 2503 miles.
This means that .
What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by less than 633 miles in a sample of 49 tires if the manager is correct?
This is the pvalue of Z when subtracted by the pvalue of Z when
By the Central Limit Theorem, we have t find the standard deviation of the sample, that is:
So
X = 33841
has a pvalue of 0.9616
X = 32575
has a pvalue of 0.0384.
This means that there is a 0.9616 - 0.0384 = 0.9232 = 92.32% probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by less than 633 miles in a sample of 49 tires if the manager is correct.
f(x) has the smallest minimum. The minimum value of f(x) is -3
The largest sin(x) can get is 1.
This applies to sin(2x-pi) as well. So f(x) is as small as -5*(1)+2 = -5+2 = -3.
You can see this each time the red curve bottoms out at y = -3.
The smallest that g(x) can get is y = -2 as shown at the vertex (3,-2)
The smallest that h(x) can get is y = 3 as shown by the point (1,3)
See the attachment for a visual comparison of the three functions.
