    Quiz 4 Nakyra Simpkins

    Quizzes are timed (1 hour, 30 minutes).  You will have 2 attempts per problem, with a 20% penalty on the
    second attempt.  There is no "try a similar question" option on quizzes.

    Question 1 4/4 pts 1

    Determine whether the value is a parameter or statistic

    A sample of men reveals 60% took calculus

    Parameter

    Statistic

    Question 2 14/14 pts 1

    For a standard normal distribution, nd:

    P(1.01 < z < 2)

    0.1334

    Question 3 9.6/12 pts

    A company produces steel rods. The lengths of the steel rods are normally distributed with a
    mean of 108.7-cm and a standard deviation of 0.5-cm.

    Find the probability that the length of a randomly selected steel rod is between 108.5-cm and
    108.6-cm.
    P(108.5-cm < X < 108.6-cm) = 0.0762

    Enter your answer as a number accurate to 4 decimal places. Answers obtained using exact z-
    scores or z-scores rounded to 3 decimal places are accepted.

    Question 4 12/12 pts 1


    The mean daily production of a herd of cows is assumed to be normally distributed with a
    mean of 32 liters, and standard deviation of 7.8 liters.

    A) What is the probability that daily production is between 8.7 and 40.8 liters? Do not round
    until you get your your nal answer.

    Answer= 0.8690 (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

    Warning: Do not use the Z Normal Tables...they may not be accurate enough since WAMAP
    may look for more accuracy than comes from the table.

    Question 5 12/12 pts 1

    A population of values has a normal distribution with μ = 139.4 and σ = 21.8 . You intend
    to draw a random sample of size n = 86.

    What is the mean of the distribution of sample means?


    μx̄ = 139.4

    What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means?


    (Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.)
    σx̄ = 2.35

    Question 6 14/14 pts 1

    CNNBC recently reported that the mean annual cost of auto insurance is 961 dollars. Assume
    the standard deviation is 221 dollars. You take a simple random sample of 54 auto insurance
    policies.

    Find the probability that a single randomly selected value is less than 995 dollars.
    P(X < 995) = 0.5611

    Find the probability that a sample of size n = 54 is randomly selected with a mean less than
    995 dollars.
    P(M < 995) = 0.8709

    Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4 decimal places.

    Question 7 16/16 pts 1


    Business Weekly conducted a survey of graduates from 30 top MBA programs. On the basis
    of the survey, assume the mean annual salary for graduates 10 years after graduation is
    167000 dollars. Assume the standard deviation is 41000 dollars. Suppose you take a simple
    random sample of 82 graduates.

    Find the probability that a single randomly selected policy has a mean value between
    162925.1 and 181941.4 dollars.
    P(162925.1 < X < 181941.4) = 0.1818 (Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4
    decimal places.)

    Find the probability that a random sample of size n = 82 has a mean value between
    162925.1 and 181941.4 dollars.
    P(162925.1 < M < 181941.4) = 0.8155 (Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4
    decimal places.)

    Question 8 16/16 pts 1

    A population of values has a normal distribution with μ = 247.6 and σ = 97.1 . You intend
    to draw a random sample of size n = 57.

    Find the probability that a single randomly selected value is greater than 216.7.
    P(X > 216.7) = 0.6248

    Find the probability that a sample of size n = 57 is randomly selected with a mean greater
    than 216.7.
    P(M > 216.7) = 0.9919

    Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4 decimal places. Answers obtained using exact
    z-scores or z-scores rounded to 3 decimal places are accepted.
