The heights of European 13-year-old boys can be approximated by a normal model with mean μ of 64.2 inches and standard deviation σ of 2.37 inches.
Question B1. What is the probability that a randomly selected 13-year-old boy from Europe is taller than 64.9 inches? (use 4 decimal places in your answer)
Question B2. A random sample of 4 European 13-year-old boys is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean height x is greater than 64.9 inches? (use 4 decimal places in your answer)
Question B3. A random sample of 9 European 13-year-old boys is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean height x is greater than 64.9 inches? (use 4 decimal places in your answer)
Question B4. The Central Limit Theorem was needed to answer questions 1, 2, and 3 above. True or False
B1)
= P(Z > 0.30)
= 1 - P(Z < 0.3)
= 1 - 0.6179
= 0.3821
B2) n = 4
= P(Z > 0.59)
= 1 - P(Z < 0.59)
= 1 - 0.7224
= 0.2776
B3) n = 9
= P(Z > 0.89)
= 1 - P(Z < 0.89)
= 1 - 0.8133
= 0.1867
B4) Option-B) False. Because the main population is normally distributed so the sampling distribution will also be normally distributed
