Assume that a population is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Would it be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more? Why or why not? Provide an example.
There are many examples currently on the Chegg database, PLEASE use a DIFFERENT example. Thank you!

Solution:
Given: A population is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
Thus Mean = 
Standard Deviation = 
Sample size = n = 3
We have to find if it is unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more.
Thus find:
=..............?
Find z score:
Thus we get:
Look in z table for z = 1.7 and 0.03 and find corresponding area.
P( Z< 1.73 ) = 0.9582
Thus
Since this probability is less than 0.05 ( or 5% ) , it would be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more.

IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. A sample of 10 children in a gifted learner program are found to have a mean IQ of 106. Use a z-test to determine if this is significantly different from the normal population mean. What are your specific null and alternative hypothesis? Z=+ - 1.96 standard deviation m= 4.743 Z= 1.26 Will you reject or retain the null hypothesis? We will retain the null...

Problems 1-4 assume a normally distributed population with a mean = 48 and standard deviation = 5. Be sure to sketch the curve, include formulas & work, round appropriately, and circle your final answer. What percent of the scores fall: at or below 54? at or above 40? What proportion of scores lie between 31 and 48? 31 and 54? Suppose we took a sample of 5000 scores from this distribution. Of those 5000 scores, how many would you expect...
