Answer:

the probability that the sample mean is greater than 2.1 but less than 2.4 is 0.2444

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

x        f(x)         xp(x)               x²p(x)

1         1/3        0.33333        0.33333

2        1/3        0.66667        1.33333

3        1/3        1.00000        3.0000

∑                    2.0000          4.6667

∑(xp(x)) = 2

∑(x²p(x)) = 4.6667

Variance σ² = ∑(x²) - ∑(x)² = 4.6667 - (2)² = 4.6667 - 4 = 0.6667

standard deviation σ = √variance = √0.6667 = 0.8165

Now since, n = 33 which is greater than 30, we can use normal approximation

for normal distribution z score ( x-μ)/σ

mean μ = 2

standard deviation = 0.817

sample size n = 33

standard of error σₓ = σ/√n = 0.817/√33 = 0.1422

so probability will be;

p( 2.1  < X < 2.4 ) = p(( 2.1-2)/0.1422) <  x"-μ/σₓ  <  p(( 2.4-2)/0.1422)

= 0.70 < Z < 2.81    

=  1 - ( 0.703 < Z < 2.812 )

FROM Z-SC0RE TABLE

=  1 - ( 0.25804 + 0.49752 )

= 1 - 0.75556

p( 2.1  < X < 2.4 ) = 0.2444

Therefore,  the probability that the sample mean is greater than 2.1 but less than 2.4 is 0.2444

A newspaper reported that 4040​% of people say that some coffee shops are overpriced. The source of this information was a telep
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

a. Identify the population of interest in this study.

  • all the population of the country

b. Identify the sample for the study.

  • 50 adults (the ones that were surveyed)

c. Identify the parameter of interest in the study.

  • the parameter of interest is the people that believe that coffee shops are overpriced

d. Find and interpret a 95​% confidence interval for the parameter of interest.

z score for a 95% confidence level = 1.96

margin of error (E) = z score x √{[0.4(1 - 0.4)] / 50} = 1.96 x 0.069282 = 0.13579

95% confidence level interval:

0.4 - 0.13579 = 0.26421

0.4 + 0.13579 = 0.53579

  • 95% confidence interval (0.26421 , 0.53579)

Without subtracting 8.5 - 4.64, determine what digit will be in the hundredths place. Explain
murzikaleks [220]
8.5 is the same as 8.50, right? So just take the digit in the hundredth place of both decimals and subtract. You'd be doing 0-4 so you can go ahead and borrow a number to make 10-4, which equals 6. So without subtracting 8.5 and 4.64, you can determine that 6 will be in the hundredth place. Hope this helps!
