from standard normal table ;for top 40% and bottom 10% , crtiical z are 0.25 and -1.28
Therefore
μ +0.25σ =9 .............(1)
μ -1.28σ =7 .............(2)
solving above:
σ=(9-7)/(0.25+1.28)=1.3072
and μ=9-0.25*1.3072 =8.6732

Suppose you take a sample of size 4 from a population that is normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 10. Based on such a sample, what is the (approximate) probability of getting a sample mean between 60 and 80? Question 3 options: 0.025 0.05 0.5 0.95 0.975 Question 4 (1 point) Suppose you take a sample of size 4 from a population that is normally distributed with a known standard deviation of 10. You...
Suppose it is known that heights of 8 year old Unrisunas trees are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 75.5" and standard deviation or = 8.3". [5 pts) What is the probability that a randomly selected tree is taller than 74”? [2 pts] If we sample 14 of those trees, what is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means for this sample? [4 pts] If you sample 14 trees, what is the probability that the mean height...
Suppose you take a sample of size 4 from a population that is normally distributed with a known standard deviation of 10. You get a sample mean of 20. What is the probability the population mean is 30 or more? Question 4 options: 0.025 0.05 0.5 0.95 Either 0 or 1, but we don't know which. Question 5 (1 point) You want to estimate the proportion of Canadians who have read fewer than 2 books in the past year. You...
Suppose that prices of Fuji apples are normally distributed. Ryan selected a simple random sample of 12 grocery stores and found that the mean price of Fuji apples at these stores was $1.84 per pound and that the standard deviation was $0.14 per pound. Ryan plans to use this information to construct a confidence interval for u, the mean price of a pound of Fuji apples. Have the requirements for a one-sample t-confidence interval been met? The requirements the population...

The lifetime of traditional light bulbs measured in hours is known to be normally distributed with μ=100 and σ=20. What is the probability that a randomly selected traditional light bulb will have a lifetime of 125 hours or longer? You need to use a normal distribution table. Find the nearest answer. a. 4.006% b. 22.663% c. 10.565% d. 77.337% e. 89.435%
Please give explanation Help Save & A random sample is drawn from a normally distributed population with mean u = 26 and standard deviation o=2. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.] a. Are the sampling distribution of the sample mean with n= 34 and n=68 normally distributed? O Yes, both the sample means will have a normal distribution. O No, both the sample means will not have a normal distribution. No, only the sample mean with...
6. You study a random variable that is known to be normally distributed. You obtain 21 independent measurements that yield a sample mean equal to 16.2 and a sample standard deviation equal to 3.90. Calculate the 95% confidence interval on the mean. There is a null hypothesis that the population mean is 15.0, and an altemate hypothesis that the population mean is greater than 15.0. Determine the P-value of that hypothesis test. (If it involves a Z-test, obtain the P-value...
If a population is known to be normally distributed with size 25 selected from the population? 89 and 15, what will be the characteristics of the sampling distribution for x based on a random sample of - 89 (Type an integer or a decimal.) - 3 (Type an integer or a decimal.) Describe the sampling distribution of the sample. Choose the correct answer below O O A. The sampling distribution is skewed right because the population is normally distributed and...
Question 2 Suppose you are working with a data set that is normally distributed, with a mean of 250 and a standard deviation of 46. Determine the value of x from the following information. (Round your answers and z values to 2 decimal places.) (a) 90% of the values are greater than x. (b) x is less than 18% of the values. (c) 25% of the values are less than x. (d) x is greater than 55% of the values.
