ReplyDelete26. .96
60. .9750 -.0250=.95 or 95% if the area is between -1.96 and 1.96.
12. .9535-.0548=.4055 or 41%
44. a) -.67 .67 so z=.67 = u16.5/o2.5 so .67=x-16.5/2.5 x=18.175lbs p.239
b.) -1 z=-1.03 = u16.5/o2.5 so -1.03=x-
16.5/16.5 x=13.925lbs
18. mean=49.3 sd=17.1, 17.1/sqrt25=3.42
51 +-3= 48->through54, and 49+-3=46->52.

p=.42
4. Section 5.3, Exercise #44, p. 244
A.) z=(x-16.5)/2.5 = 2.5x.68+16.5=x=18.2
B.) z=(x-16.5)/2.5 = 2.5x -1.3+16.5 = 12.75
