Question 1
Solve the problem.
Among a random sample of 500 college students, the mean number of hours worked per week at non-college related jobs is 15.1. This mean lies 2.8 standard deviation(s) below the mean of the sampling distribution. If a second sample of 500 students is selected, what is the probability that for the second sample, the mean number of hours worked will be at least 15.1?
