Suppose you take a simple random sample of 97 graduates.Find the probability that a single randomly selected salary that doesn't exceed 126000 dollars.Answer = Find the probability that a sample of size n=97n=97 is randomly selected with a mean that that doesn't exceed 126000 dollars.Answer = Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4 decimal places.arrow_forwardService time for a customer coming through a checkout counter in a retail store is a random variable with the mean of 4.0 minutes and standard deviation of 2.0 minutes. Suppose that the distribution of service time is fairly close to a normal distribution. Suppose there are two counters in a store, n₁ = 46 customers in the first line and n₂ = 52 customers in the second line. Find the probability that the difference between the mean service time for the shorter line X₁ and the mean service time for the longer one X₂ is more than 0.3 minutes. Assume that the service times for each customer can be regarded as independent random variables. Round your answer to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76).
