An Epson inkjet printer ad advertises that the black ink cartridge will provide enough ink for an average of 245 pages. Assume that this claim is accurate and that the standard deviation for this population is 15 pages. A random sample of 33 customers was surveyed about the number of pages they were able to print with their black ink cartridges. What the probability that the sample mean will be 246 pages or more?

35.2% probability that the sample mean will be 246 pages or more

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean and standard deviation .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

What the probability that the sample mean will be 246 pages or more?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 246. So

By the Central Limit Theorem

has a pvalue of 0.6480.

1 - 0.6480 = 0.3520

35.2% probability that the sample mean will be 246 pages or more

y=−9/2x+10

step-by-step explanation:

let's solve for y.

0−9x−2y=−20

step 1: add 9x to both sides.

−9x−2y+9x=−20+9x

−2y=9x−20

step 2: divide both sides by -2.

−2y

−2

=

9x−20

−2

y=

think about it deeply and passionately about this property
