Short Answer

Let X represent the score when a fair six-sided die is rolled. For this random variable,μX=3.5 and σX=1.71. If the die is rolled 100 times, what is the approximate probability that the total score is at least 375?

Result is:

0.0721

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Given information

we have been given that

μX=3.5

σX=1.71

n=Sample size =100

Step 2: Simplify

The mean score is the total score divided by the sample

x¯=Total scoren

The Z score is the value decreased by the mean

z=x-μσ/n=3.75-3.51.71/1001.47

Row is starting with 1.4 and column is starting with 0.06 of the table.

P(X¯3.75)=P(Z>1.46)=1-P(Z<1.46)=1-0.9279=0.0721
