Question 19
1 pts
Evaluate the following expression at the values xˉ=89.2,μ=89,σ=0.77\bar{x}=89.2, \mu=89, \sigma=0.77, and n=153n=153
xˉμσn\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} Enter your answer as a decimal rounded to four decimal places.

STEP 1

1. The expression to be evaluated is xˉμσn\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}.
2. The values given are xˉ=89.2\bar{x} = 89.2, μ=89\mu = 89, σ=0.77\sigma = 0.77, and n=153n = 153.
3. The problem involves basic arithmetic and square root calculations.

STEP 2

1. Calculate the numerator xˉμ\bar{x} - \mu.
2. Calculate the denominator σn\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.
3. Divide the numerator by the denominator.
4. Round the result to four decimal places.

STEP 3

Calculate the numerator xˉμ\bar{x} - \mu.
xˉμ=89.289=0.2 \bar{x} - \mu = 89.2 - 89 = 0.2

STEP 4

Calculate the denominator σn\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.
n=153 \sqrt{n} = \sqrt{153}

STEP 5

Compute 153\sqrt{153}.
15312.3693 \sqrt{153} \approx 12.3693

STEP 6

Now, calculate σn\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.
σn=0.7712.36930.0623 \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{0.77}{12.3693} \approx 0.0623

STEP 7

Divide the numerator by the denominator.
xˉμσn=0.20.06233.2104 \frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} = \frac{0.2}{0.0623} \approx 3.2104

SOLUTION

Round the result to four decimal places.
3.2104 \approx 3.2104 Solution: The value of the expression evaluated at the given values is approximately 3.21043.2104.
