A population has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 80. Suppose a simple random sample of size 100 is selected and is used to estimate. Use a. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/-3 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)? b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/-16 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)?

A population has a mean of 400 and a standard deviation of 70. Suppose a sample of size 125 is selected and x̄ is used to estimate μ. Use z-table. a. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within ±8 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)? b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within ±16 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)?

A population has a mean of 400 and a standard deviation of 60. Suppose a sample of size 100 is selected and is used to estimate . Use z-table. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 4 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)? (Round z value in intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 16 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)? (Round z value in intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
