The life expectancy (M) in the United States is 85 with a standard deviation of 6 years. A random sample of 36 individuals is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years?

The probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years is 0.8351.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if an unknown population is selected with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from this population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally.  

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

The information provided is:

As the sample size is large enough the Central Limit Theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample mean life expectancy (M) in the United States.

Compute the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years as follows:

Thus, the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years is 0.8351.
