Question
Based on the data in table below, assume that ages of moviegoers are normally distributed with a mean of 35 years and a standard deviation of 20 years.
Find the probability that a simple random sample of 25 moviegoers has a mean age that is less than 30 years.
Solution
VerifiedStep 1
1 of 2Given:
We need to determine the probability that the mean age of moviegoers is less than 30 years.
The sampling distribution of the sample mean has mean and standard deviation .
The z-value is the sample mean decreased by the population mean, divided by the standard deviation:
Let us determine the corresponding probability using the normal probability table in the appendix, which is given in the row starting with "" and in the column starting with ".05".
