One year consumers spent an average of $23 on a meal at a restaurant. Assume that the amount spent on a restaurant meal is normally distributed and that the standard deviation is $6.
What is the probability that a randomly selected person spent more than $28?
P(X>$28)=?
given data are
population mean =$23
population sd =$6
sample n=1
sample mean =$28
in a z normal distribution, z=
z=(28-23)/(6/)
= 5/6
=0.83333= 0.83
p (X>28)=p (z >0.83)
= 1- p (z0.83)
= 1-0.7967
=0.2033
p (X>28)= 0.2033
