Answer from: maysahdabest

The probability that a sample mean will be greater than 50.8 is P(Z > 1) = 0.159.

Given that,

Suppose that a random sample of size 100 is to be selected from a population with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 8.

We have to determine,

What is the probability that a sample mean will be greater than 50.8?

According to the question,

Sample size (n) = 100

Population mean(pm) = 50

Standard deviation (s) = 8

The probability that Sample mean (m) will be greater than 50.8.

Therefore,

$\dfrac{(sample \ mean - population \ mean) \times \sqrt{n}}{standard \ deviation}$

Where P(m > 50.8)

$Z = \dfrac{50.8 - 50 \times \sqrt{100}}{8}\\\\Z =\dfrac{ 0.8 \times 10 }{8}\\\\Z = \dfrac{0.8 }{0.8}\\\\Z = 1$

P(Z > 1) = 0.15866 ( Z probability calculator)

Hence, The probability that a sample mean will be greater than 50.8 is P(Z > 1) = 0.159.

0.159

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample size (n) = 100

Population mean(pm) = 50

Standard deviation (s) = 8

Probability that Sample mean (m) will be greater Than 50.8

Using the relation :

(sample mean - population mean) / (standard deviation /sqrt(n))

P(m > 50.8)

Z = (50.8 - 50) / (8/ sqrt(100))

Z = 0.8 / (8/ 10)

Z = 0.8 / 0.8

Z = 1

P(Z > 1) = 0.15866 ( Z probability calculator)

Hence,

P(Z > 1) = 0.159 ( 3 decimal places)

x= 1

step-by-step explanation: convert 5\frac{11}{12}5

to improper fraction. use this rule: a \frac{b}{c}=\frac{ac+b}{c}a

ac+b

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{5\times 12+11}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

5×12+11

2 simplify 5\times 125×12 to 6060

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{60+11}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

60+11

3 simplify 60+1160+11 to 7171

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

4 simplify \frac{5}{6}x

x to \frac{5x}{6}

3.25+0.5x+1\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+1

5 convert 1\frac{1}{3}1

to improper fraction. use this rule: a \frac{b}{c}=\frac{ac+b}{c}a

ac+b

3.25+0.5x+\frac{1\times 3+1}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+

1×3+1

6 simplify 1\times 31×3 to 33

3.25+0.5x+\frac{3+1}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+

3+1

7 simplify 3+13+1 to 44

3.25+0.5x+\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}=\frac{71}{12}3.25+0.5x+

8 simplify 3.25+0.5x+\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5x}{6}3.25+0.5x+

to \frac{13.75}{3}+\frac{4x}{3}

13.75

\frac{13.75}{3}+\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{71}{12}

13.75

9 simplify \frac{13.75}{3}

13.75

to 4.5833334.583333

4.583333+\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{71}{12}4.583333+

10 subtract 4.5833334.583333 from both sides

\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{71}{12}-4.583333

−4.583333

11 simplify \frac{71}{12}-4.583333

−4.583333 to \frac{4}{3}

\frac{4x}{3}=\frac{4}{3}

12 multiply both sides by 33

4x=\frac{4}{3}\times 34x=

×3

13 simplify \frac{4}{3}\times 3

×3 to \frac{12}{3}

4x=\frac{12}{3}4x=

14 simplify \frac{12}{3}

to 44

4x=44x=4

15 divide both sides by 44

x=1
