Centrel finit theorems Sample men The mean starting salary offered to graduating students with a certain major in a recent year was \( \$ 64,245 \), with a standard deviation of \( \$ 3678 \). A random sample of 85 of that year's graduating students with the major has been selected. What is the probability that the mean starting salary offered to these 85 students was \( \$ 64,250 \) or more? Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places.

Step 1
- Population mean (\(\mu\)) = \$64,245 - Population standard deviation (\(\sigma\)) = \$3,678 - Sample size (\(n\)) = 85 - We are asked to find the probability that the sample mean (\(\overline{X}\)) is at least \$64,250. Show more…

A survey reported that the mean starting salary for college graduates after a three-year program was $35,710. Assume that the distribution of starting salaries follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of $3,320. What percentage of the graduates have starting salaries: (Round z-score computation to 2 decimal places and the final answers to 4 decimal places:) Between $31,800 and $39,200? Probability More than $43,600? Probability Between $39,200 and $43,600? Probability

The probability that a randomly selected education major received a starting salary offer greater than $52,350 is ______ . The probability that a randomly selected education major received a starting salary offer between $45,000 and $52,350 is ______ . (Hint: The standard normal distribution is perfectly symmetrical about the mean, the area under the curve to the left (and right) of the mean is 0.5. Therefore, the area under the curve between the mean and a z-score is computed by subtracting the area to the left (or right) of the z-score from 0.5.) What percentage of education majors received a starting offer between $38,500 and $45,000? 65.38% 6.68% 34.62% 93.32% Twenty percent of education majors were offered a starting salary less than ______ .

Business Weekly conducted a survey of graduates from 30 top MBA programs. On the basis of the survey, assume the mean annual salary for graduates 10 years after graduation is $170,000. Assume the standard deviation is $42,000. Suppose you take a simple random sample of 49 graduates. Round all answers to four decimal places if necessary. What is the distribution of X ? X ~ N( , ) What is the distribution of ÂŻ x ? ÂŻ x ~ N( , ) For a single randomly selected graduate, find the probability that her salary is between $166,400 and $172,000. For a simple random sample of 49 graduates, find the probability that the average salary is between $166,400 and $172,000. For part d), is the assumption of normal necessary? No or Yes
