1.) A population of values has a normal distribution with μ=181.9 and σ=95.2. You intend to draw a random sample of size n=79.
What is the mean of the distribution of sample means?
μx=
What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means?
(Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.)
σx=

2.) A population of values has a normal distribution with μ=178.3 and σ=79.9. You intend to draw a random sample of size n=27.
Find the probability that a single randomly selected value is less than 166.
P(X < 166) =
Find the probability that a sample of size n=27 is randomly selected with a mean less than 166.
P(M < 166) =
3.) A population of values has a normal distribution with μ=172.1 and σ=41.8. You intend to draw a random sample of size n=195.
Find P94, which is the score separating the bottom 94% scores from the top 6% scores.
P94 (for single values) =
Find P94, which is the mean separating the bottom 94% means from the top 6% means.
P94 (for sample means) =
4.) A population of values has a normal distribution with μ=96.4 and σ=56.8. You intend to draw a random sample of size n=152.
Find the probability that a sample of size n=152 is randomly selected with a mean greater than 82.6.
P(M > 82.6) =
5.) A population of values has a normal distribution with μ=7.7 and σ=24.5. You intend to draw a random sample of size n=122.
Find the probability that a sample of size n=122 is randomly selected with a mean between 1 and 11.2.
P(1 < M < 11.2) =
6.) A company produces steel rods. The lengths of the steel rods are normally distributed with a mean of 207.1-cm and a standard deviation of 2.1-cm. For shipment, 29 steel rods are bundled together.
Find the probability that the average length of a randomly selected bundle of steel rods is less than 207.8-cm.
P(M < 207.8-cm) =
