Question
A leading magazine (like Barron's) reported at one time
that the average number of weeks an individual is
unemployed is 35.2 weeks. Assume that for the population
of all unemployed individuals the population mean length
of unemployment is 35.2 weeks and that the population
standard deviation is 5.6 weeks. Suppose you would like to
select a random sample of 29 unemployed individuals for a
follow-up study.
Find the probability that a single randomly selected value
is between 33.1 and 33.8.
P(33.1 < X < 33.8) = 0.0475
29 is
Find the probability that a sample of size n
randomly selected with a mean between 33.1 and 33.8.
Р(3.1 < М < 33.8) -
Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4 decimal
places.
