a) 0.0347.
b) 0.7200.
c) 0.9511.
d) None of the alternative answers is correct.

Answer :

C cause it’s the right answer

In probability, the sampling distribution of the sample proportions can be approximated by a normal probability distribution when D. Both a and b are true.

How to calculate the probability?

The sampling distribution of the sample proportions can be approximated by a normal probability distribution whenever np is greater than or equal to 5 and when n(1-p) is greater than or equal to 5.

When the continuous random variable is uniformly distributed between a and b, the probability density function between a and b is 1/(b - a).

The probability that the sample mean will be between 80.54 and 88.9 will be:

= P[Z = 88.9 - 84)/(12/✓36)] - P(Z = 80.54 - 84)/(12/✓36)]

= P(Z = 2.45) - P(Z = -1.73)

= 0.9929 - 0.0418

= 0.9511

Therefore, the probability is 0.9511.
