In a recent year, grade 8 Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean score of 281 with a standard deviation of 34.4. Possible test scores could range from 0 to 500. Assume that the scores are normally distributed. A random sample of 60 students is drawn from this population. What is the probability that the mean test score is greater than 290? Leave answers in decimal form, not percentages. Round to the nearest Hundredth (two decimal places).

The probability that the mean test score is greater than 290

P(X⁻ > 290 ) = 0.0217

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Mean of the Population (μ) = 281

Standard deviation of the Population = 34.4

Let 'X' be a random variable in Normal distribution

Given X = 290

Step(ii):-

The probability that the mean test score is greater than 290

P(X⁻ > 290 ) = P( Z > 2.027)

                    = 0.5 - A ( 2.027)

                   = 0.5 - 0.4783

                   = 0.0217

The probability that the mean test score is greater than 290

P(X⁻ > 290 ) = 0.0217

i think the correct option is the second option.

the answer is (-8,-5)

step-by-step explanation:

the endpoint to midpoint is half the length. the length is (-2,-1) so when you are at the midpoint just add it to it to find your answer -6+(-2)= -8 and -4+(-1)=-5 so (-8,-5)
