Jumbo shrimp are those that require 10 to 15 shrimp to make a pound. Suppose that the number of jumbo shrimp in a 1-pound bag averages ? = 12.5 with a standard deviation of s = 1, and forms a normal distribution. What is the probability of randomly picking a sample of n = 25 1-pound bags that average more than M = 13 shrimp per bag?

By definition, jumbo shrimp are those that require between 10 and 15 shrimp to make a pound. Suppose that the number of jumbo shrimp in a 1-pound bag averages μ=12.5 with a standard deviation of 1.5 and forms a normal distribution. a) What is the probability of randomly picking a sample of N=49 1-pound bags that average more than M=13 shrimp per bag? b) What is the probability of randomly taking a sample of N=25 1-pound bags that average fewer than M=12 shrimp per bag?

Jumbo shrimp are defined as those that require 10 to 15 shrimp to make a pound. Suppose that the number of jumbo shrimp in a 1-pound bag averages μ = 12.5 with a standard deviation of σ = 1.5 and forms a normal distribution. Using the Distributions tool, find the probability of randomly picking a sample of n = 25 1-pound bags that average more than M = 13 shrimp per bag. The probability of randomly picking a sample of n = 25 1-pound bags that average more than M = 13 shrimp per bag is p

The mean cost of a five pound bag of shrimp is 4646 dollars with a standard deviation of 77 dollars. If a sample of 4949 bags of shrimp is randomly selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by more than 0.50.5 dollars? Round your answer to four decimal places.
