The length of pregnancies are normally distributed with a mean of 260 days and standard deviation of 12 days. If 30 women are randomly selected, find the probability that lengths of pregnancy have a mean that is less than 255 days.
What I Know
Before you proceed and explore on computing probabilities under the normal
curve let us see how much you know before we tackle the lesson. Below is a 5-lem
true or false test Determine whether the statement is true or false Wanite Tithe
statement is true and Fit false on the blank provided before each number
7. Probability value is a number from 0 to 1
2. Probability value is a number from - 1 to 1
3. Finding the area of a region is the same as finding the probability
associated with that region.
4. The probability that the z-score falls at most = -1 is equal to the
probability of that the Z-score falis less than z = -1
6. It is possible to have a negative probability
You want to determine the opinion of students in New York University about the new platform used in learning this pandemic. You wanted to use stratified sampling in getting responses from a sample of 500 students. Given the following data, identify how many samples are there in each grade level.
Grade 7: 1,557
Grade 8: 1, 209
Grade 9: 1,054
Grade 10: 1, 988
Grade 11:1, 456
Grade 12: 1,764
A population consists of the five numbers 2, 3, 6, 8, and 11. Consider samples of size 2 that can be drawn from this population. List all the possible samples and the corresponding mean. Construct also the sampling distribution of the the sample means.
In a Math test, the mean score is 48 and the standard deviation is 7. Assuming normality, what is probability that a score picked at random will lie above score 55?
