Find the 5th, 25th, 50th, and 90th percentiles of a normal distribution, then create a problem that requires the use of the central limit theorem with the above mean and variance. Be sure to give the solution. Thanks for any help! Please show work.
Solution
Find the 5th, 25th, 50th, and 90th percentiles of a normal distribution, then create a problem that requires the use of the central limit theorem with the above mean and variance. Be sure to give the solution as well.
Mean =38
Variance =10
Sd =3.1623
5th percentiles =32.8
25th percentiles = 35.87
50th percentiles = 38
90th percentiles =42.05
Problem: suppose we take 25 persons from this population what is the probability of sample mean greater than 39.
solution
P( x mean > 39) = P(z > ( 39-38/(3.1623/sqrt(25)) )
= p( z > 1.58)
=0.0571
