- Central High School believes their students have unusually high SAT scores on average. The school has 165 students.Based on national data, the average SAT score is 1067 with a population standard deviation of 207. Assume SAT scores are normally distributed. Let X be the random variable representing the mean SAT scores for groups of 165 randomly selected students.a. Fill in the blank, rounding your answers to 2 decimal places if needed. According to the Central Limit Theorem, X is approximately normal with a mean of and a standard error of the mean .b. Find the z-score associated to a sample with a mean of 1109, using the sampling distribution. Round your answer to two decimal places. c. Find the probability that a randomly selected sample of 165 students has a mean SAT score higher than 1109. Round your answer to 4 decimal places. d.

A sign in the elevator limits the passenger count to 15. If the adult population has a mean weight of 180 pounds with a 25-pound standard deviation, how unusual would it be, if the central limit theorem applied, that an elevator holding 15 people would be carrying more than 3500 pounds?
