We will use the central limit theorem to calculate the probability.
First, we need to calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample means.
The mean of the sampling distribution is equal to the mean of the population, which is given as 37.5 years.
The standard deviation of the sampling distribution (also called the standard error) is equal to the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size.
standard error = standard deviation / sqrt(sample size)
standard error = 8.3 / sqrt(45)
standard error = 1.236
Next, we need to standardize the sample mean using Z-score formula.
Z = (sample mean - population mean) / standard error
Z = (40 - 37.5) / 1.236
Z = 2.02
Finally, we need to find the probability of getting a Z-score less than or equal to 2.02. We can use a standard normal distribution table or calculator to find this probability.
Using a Z-table, we find that the probability of getting a Z-score less than or equal to 2.02 is approximately 0.9783.
Therefore, the probability that the sample will have an average age less than or equal to 40 is 0.9783 or 97.83%.
Aproduction company 350 hourly employes have 37.5 years of age with 8.3 of years standard deviation. If random sample of 45 it taken. Then what is the probability that the sample will have an average age less than or equal to 40?
