The National Quality Research Center at the University of Michigan provides a quarterly measure of consumer opinions about products and services. A survey of 50 restaurants in the Fast Food / Pizza group showed that the average rating was a 71. Past data indicate that the population standard deviation of the index has been relatively stable, with sigma = 5. Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the population mean index for this type of restaurants.arrow_forwardThe following is the probability distribution for an athlete of winning medals.

- Let x be the number of courses for which randomly selected student at a university is registered. The probability distribution of x appears in the following table. ( all students must be enrolled in between 1 and 7 classes ) x. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 P (x) ( 0.02 ) ( 0.04 ) (0.09 ) (0.24) ( 0.39 ) ( 0.17 ) ( .05 ) a. Find mean (x) ( round to two decimal places ) B. Find standard deviation of x ( round to two decimal places ) c. What is the probability that x is within 1 standard deviation of the mean? In other words solve: p ( mean of x - standard deviation of x < x < mean of x + standard deviation of x )=arrow_forwardVerify whether the given table represents a probability distribution. In those cases where a probability distribution is described, find the mean and standard deviation. NOTE: The Rounding Rule for the mean and standard deviation: They should be rounded to one more decimal place than occurs in the raw data.
