Exam scores for a large introductory statistics class follow an approximate normal distribution with an average score of 56 and a standard deviation of 5. the average exam score in your lab was 59.5. the 20 students in your lab sections will be considered a random sample of all students who take this class. what is the probability that the average score of a random sample of 20 students exceeds 59.5?

0.1% probability that the average score of a random sample of 20 students exceeds 59.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean and standard deviation , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean and standard deviation

Normal probability distribution

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

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

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.

In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that the average score of a random sample of 20 students exceeds 59.5?

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

has a pvalue of 0.9990.

So there is a 1-0.9990 = 0.001 = 0.1% probability that the average score of a random sample of 20 students exceeds 59.5.

darn right!
