Question
The average price of a college math textbook is $161 and the standard deviation is $27. Suppose that 12 textbooks are randomly chosen. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible.
- What is the distribution of ¯xx¯? ¯xx¯ ~ N(,)
- For the group of 12, find the
probability that the average price is between $163 and $169. - Find the first
quartile for the average textbook price for thissample size . $ (round to the nearest cent) - For part b), is the assumption that the distribution is normal necessary? NoYes
