SAMPLING DISTRIBUTION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The weights of horses are approximately normal with a mean of 1, 500 lbs. and a standard deviation of 30 lbs. What is the probability that the mean weight of 36 randomly selected horses is greater than 1560 pounds?
A
65.54%
B
97.72%
C
 0%
D
34.46%
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The mean and standard deviation of a population are 200 and 20, respectively. Sample size is 25.

Detailed explanation-2: -The central limit theorem is useful when analyzing large data sets because it allows one to assume that the sampling distribution of the mean will be normally-distributed in most cases. This allows for easier statistical analysis and inference.
