a) P(12.99 ≤ X ≤ 13.01) = 0.3840

b) P(X ≥ 13.01) = 0.3075

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the cental limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 13, \sigma = 0.08$

(a) Calculate P(12.99 ≤ X ≤ 13.01) when n = 16.

Here we have $n = 16, s = \frac{0.08}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.02$

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 13.01 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 12.99.

X = 13.01

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{13.01 - 13}{0.02}$

Z = 0.5

Z = 0.5 has a pvalue of 0.6915

X = 12.99

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{12.99 - 13}{0.02}$

Z = -0.5

Z = -0.5 has a pvalue of 0.3075

0.6915 - 0.3075 = 0.3840

P(12.99 ≤ X ≤ 13.01) = 0.3840

(b) How likely is it that the sample mean diameter exceeds 13.01 when n = 25?

P(X ≥ 13.01) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 13.01. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{13.01 - 13}{0.02}$

Z = 0.5

Z = 0.5 has a pvalue of 0.6915

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3075

P(X ≥ 13.01) = 0.3075
