The mean preparation fee h& r block charged retail customers last year was $183 (the wall street journal, march 7, 2012). use this price as the population mean and assume the population standard deviation of preparation fees is $50.
a. what is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 h& r block retail customers is within $8 of the population mean?
b. what is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 h& r block retail customers is within $8 of the population mean?
c. what is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 100

and the population standard deviation,
