# 7.5 Practice: the central limit theorem

 Page 1 / 1

## Student learning outcomes

• The student will calculate probabilities using the Central Limit Theorem.

## Given

Yoonie is a personnel manager in a large corporation. Each month she must review 16 of the employees. From past experience, she has found that the reviews take her approximately 4 hours each to do with a population standard deviation of 1.2 hours. Let $X$ be the random variable representing the time it takes her to complete one review. Assume $X$ is normally distributed. Let $\overline{X}$ be the random variable representing the mean time to complete the 16 reviews. Let $\mathrm{\Sigma X}$ be the total time it takes Yoonie to complete all of the month’s reviews. Assume that the 16 reviews represent a random set of reviews.

## Distribution

Complete the distributions.

1. $X$ ~
2. $\overline{X}$ ~
3. $\mathrm{\Sigma X}$ ~

## Graphing probability

For each problem below:

• Sketch the graph. Label and scale the horizontal axis. Shade the region corresponding to the probability.
• Calculate the value.

Find the probability that one review will take Yoonie from 3.5 to 4.25 hours.

• $P\left($ ________ $\begin{array}{} ________ $\right)=$ _______

• 3.5, 4.25, 0.2441

Find the probability that the mean of a month’s reviews will take Yoonie from 3.5 to 4.25 hrs.

• $P\text{(________________ )}=$ _______

• 0.7499

Find the 95th percentile for the mean time to complete one month’s reviews.

• The 95th Percentile=

• 4.49 hours

Find the probability that the sum of the month’s reviews takes Yoonie from 60 to 65 hours.

• The Probability=

• 0.3802

Find the 95th percentile for the sum of the month’s reviews.

• The 95th percentile=

• 71.90

## Discussion question

how can chip be made from sand
are nano particles real
yeah
Joseph
Hello, if I study Physics teacher in bachelor, can I study Nanotechnology in master?
no can't
Lohitha
where we get a research paper on Nano chemistry....?
nanopartical of organic/inorganic / physical chemistry , pdf / thesis / review
Ali
what are the products of Nano chemistry?
There are lots of products of nano chemistry... Like nano coatings.....carbon fiber.. And lots of others..
learn
Even nanotechnology is pretty much all about chemistry... Its the chemistry on quantum or atomic level

no nanotechnology is also a part of physics and maths it requires angle formulas and some pressure regarding concepts

what is variations in raman spectra for nanomaterials
ya I also want to know the raman spectra
Bhagvanji
I only see partial conversation and what's the question here!
what about nanotechnology for water purification
please someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think one can use nanoparticles, specially silver nanoparticles for water treatment.
Damian
yes that's correct
Professor
I think
Professor
Nasa has use it in the 60's, copper as water purification in the moon travel.

what is the stm
is there industrial application of fullrenes. What is the method to prepare fullrene on large scale.?
Rafiq
industrial application...? mmm I think on the medical side as drug carrier, but you should go deeper on your research, I may be wrong
Damian
How we are making nano material?
what is a peer
What is meant by 'nano scale'?
What is STMs full form?
LITNING
scanning tunneling microscope
Sahil
how nano science is used for hydrophobicity
Santosh
Do u think that Graphene and Fullrene fiber can be used to make Air Plane body structure the lightest and strongest. Rafiq
Rafiq
what is differents between GO and RGO?
Mahi
what is simplest way to understand the applications of nano robots used to detect the cancer affected cell of human body.? How this robot is carried to required site of body cell.? what will be the carrier material and how can be detected that correct delivery of drug is done Rafiq
Rafiq
if virus is killing to make ARTIFICIAL DNA OF GRAPHENE FOR KILLED THE VIRUS .THIS IS OUR ASSUMPTION
Anam
analytical skills graphene is prepared to kill any type viruses .
Anam
Any one who tell me about Preparation and application of Nanomaterial for drug Delivery
Hafiz
what is Nano technology ?
write examples of Nano molecule?
Bob
The nanotechnology is as new science, to scale nanometric
brayan
nanotechnology is the study, desing, synthesis, manipulation and application of materials and functional systems through control of matter at nanoscale
