- A professor knows that her statistics students' final exam scores have a mean of 79 and a standard deviation of 12.4. In his class, an "A" is any exam score of 90 or higher. This quarter she has 25 students in her class. What is the probability that 7 students or more will score an "A" on the final exam?arrow_forwardWhat is the variance and standard deviation for these numbersarrow_forwardWhat is left skewed distributionarrow_forward
- A dean in the business school claims that GMAT scores of applicants to the school's MBA program have increased during the past 5 years. Five years ago, the mean and standard deviation of GMAT scores of MBA applicants were 550 and 60, respectively. 30 applications for this year's program were randomly selected and the GMAT scores recorded. If we assume that the distribution of GMAT scores of this year's applicants is the same as that of 5 years ago, find the probability of erroneously concluding that there is not enough evidence to supports the claim when, in fact, the true mean GMAT score is 590. Assume αα is 0.02.arrow_forwardSuppose that home prices (in thousands of dollars) in a certain region have a mean of 360 and a standard deviation of 180. A realtor randomly selects a sample of 90 homes in the region. Estimate the probability that the sample mean home price from the realtor's data is greater than 400 (thousand dollars). You must justify your solution, and note any assumptions you are making.arrow_forwardIf the distribution of the population has a nonzero standard deviation and mean 12 then the probability that an individual data value will be greater than 14 is always less than the probability that the mean of 45 randomly selected data values will be greater than 14.
