A particular automobile costs an average of $21,755 in the
Pacific Northwest. The standard deviation of prices is $650.
Suppose a random sample of 30 dealerships in Washington and Oregon
is taken, and their managers are asked what they charge for this
automobile. What is the probability of getting a sample average
cost of less than $21,500? Assume that only 120 dealerships in the
entire Pacific Northwest sell this automobile.
(Round all z values to 2 decimal places. Round all
intermediate calculations and answer to 4 decimal
places.)
SAYS ANSWER IS NOT .0158 !!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP!
Answer:
Probability = 0.1074
Explanation:
Since the population standard deviation is known, the z distribution is used for the sampleing distribution of the mean hence the probability is obtained by calculating the z score as shown below,
The probability is obtained from the z distribution table for Z = -1.2406
