A manufacturer produces -pound lifting weights. The lowest actual weight is pounds, and the highest is pounds. Each weight is equally likely so the distribution of weights is uniform. A sample of weights is taken.
Find the probability that the mean actual weight for the weights is greater than .
Based on data from the National Health Survey, women between the ages of and have an average systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) of with a standard deviation of Systolic blood pressure for women between the ages of to follow a normal distribution.
a. If one woman from this population is randomly selected, find the probability that her systolic blood pressure is greater than .
b. If women from this population are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean systolic blood pressure is greater than .
c. If the sample were four women between the ages of to and we did not know the original distribution, could the central limit theorem be used?
Yoonie is a personnel manager in a large corporation. Each month she must review of the employees. From past experience, she has found that the reviews take her approximately four hours each to do with a population standard deviation of hours. Let Χ be the random variable representing the time it takes her to complete one review. Assume Χ is normally distributed. Let x- be the random variable representing the meantime to complete the reviews. Assume that the reviews represent a random set of reviews.
