According to the article,"Song Dialects and Colonization in the House Finch" (Condor (1975): 407- 422) reported the mean value of song duration for the population of house finches is 1.5 min with a standard deviation of .9 min. Suppose an SRS of 25 finches is selected. How likely is it that the average song duration of the sample will be greater than 1.7 min?

$P(\bar X 1.7) = P(Z \frac{1.7-1.5}{0.18}) = P(Z1.11) = 1-P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the song duration of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(1.5,0.9)$

Where $\mu=1.5$ and $\sigma=0.9$

Since the distribution for X is normal then we have that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

We select a sample size of n =25 so then the deviation for the sample mean is given by:

$\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{0.9}{\sqrt{25}}= 0.18$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z= \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\sigma_{\bar X}}$

We want to find this probability:

$P(\bar X 1.7)$

And using the z score ,the complement rule and the normal standard distribution table or excel we got:

$P(\bar X 1.7) = P(Z \frac{1.7-1.5}{0.18}) = P(Z1.11) = 1-P(Z$

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
