MATH140 Assignment #

Question #1) [15 Points] According to Neilson & Co adults watch an average of 30 hours of a TV a week. Assume the population standard deviation for ‘hours of TV watched per week’ is 12 hours.

 If a random sample of 30 adults is selected, what is the probability the sample mean for hours of TV watched per week is less than 28 hours?

 If a random sample of 30 adults is selected, what is the probability the sample mean for hours of TV watched per week is more than 31 hours?

 If a random sample of 30 adults is selected, what is the probability the sample mean for hours of TV watched per week is between 28 and 31 hours?

Question #2) [15 Points] According to the Department of Education, 11% of adults have an advanced degree. Suppose a random sample of 500 adults is taken and the proportion with an advanced degree is recorded.

 Describe the sampling distribution for the sample proportion of adults who have an advanced degree in a sample of 500. [Note: round the standard deviation to four decimal places]

 What is the probability that in a random sample of 500 less than 10% would have an advanced degree?

 What is the probability that in a random sample of 500 more than 65 would have an advanced degree?
