n=10 _________________%

n=50 _________________%

n=100 _________________%

An assessment of optimism forms a normal distribution with mean=75 and standard deviation=15. If a random sample of 25 people is selected and the mean score is computed for this sample, then

Q3. Of all the possible sample means, what proportion of the sample means will be greater than 82?

Q4. What proportion of sample means will be less than 70?

Q5. What proportion of sample means will be within 3 points of the population mean, i.e., between 72 and 78?
