The weight of football players is normally distributed with a mean of 200 pounds and a standard deviation of 25 pounds. If a random sample of 35 football players is taken, what is the probability that that the random sample will have a mean more than 210 pounds?

Respuesta :

We know that

• The mean is 200 pounds.

,

• The standard deviation is 25 pounds.

,

• The random sample is 35.

First, let's find the Z value using the following formula

[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Let's replace the mean, the standard deviation, and x = 210.

[tex]Z=\frac{210-200}{25}=\frac{10}{25}=0.4[/tex]

Then, using a p-value table associated with z-scores, we find the probability

[tex]P(x>210)=P(Z>0.4)=0.1554[/tex]

Therefore, the probability is 0.1554.

The table used is shown below
