00:00:01.470 --> 00:00:02.303
<v Instructor>Hello, students.</v>

2
00:00:02.303 --> 00:00:06.150
Now we are in part C, which is slightly different.

3
00:00:06.150 --> 00:00:08.790
So first I'm going to read the problem again.

4
00:00:08.790 --> 00:00:10.680
So, it's problem three.

5
00:00:10.680 --> 00:00:13.860
Total cholesterol in children age 10 to 15 years of age

6
00:00:13.860 --> 00:00:16.050
is assumed to follow a normal distribution

7
00:00:16.050 --> 00:00:21.050
with a mean of 191 and a standard deviation of 22.4.

8
00:00:21.450 --> 00:00:24.540
So in part C, the question is if a sample

9
00:00:24.540 --> 00:00:27.840
of 20 children is selected, what is the probability

10
00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:30.660
that the mean cholesterol level in the sample

11
00:00:30.660 --> 00:00:32.763
will exceed 200?

12
00:00:34.170 --> 00:00:36.580
So what is going on here is that

13
00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:41.120
now instead of looking at the entire population,

14
00:00:43.140 --> 00:00:46.260
we are looking at a sample of 20 children.

15
00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:48.900
So we will draw the normal distribution,

16
00:00:48.900 --> 00:00:51.120
just like we did before,

17
00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:53.880
but now instead of the total population,

18
00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:57.213
this will be our sampling distribution of means.

19
00:00:59.160 --> 00:01:01.350
And as per the central limit theorem,

20
00:01:01.350 --> 00:01:03.780
the mean of our sampling distribution

21
00:01:03.780 --> 00:01:07.830
is going to be equal to our mu, our population mean,

22
00:01:07.830 --> 00:01:10.980
and the standard error of that distribution

23
00:01:10.980 --> 00:01:12.840
will be equal to the sigma,

24
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:14.670
or population standard deviation,

25
00:01:14.670 --> 00:01:19.170
divided by the square root of our sample size,

26
00:01:19.170 --> 00:01:20.520
which is here, 20.

27
00:01:20.520 --> 00:01:23.650
So, without further delay I'm going to start

28
00:01:25.170 --> 00:01:27.150
writing some of this information.

29
00:01:27.150 --> 00:01:30.213
So here X-bar is equal to mu,

30
00:01:31.770 --> 00:01:35.550
and SE, which is the abbreviation for standard error,

31
00:01:35.550 --> 00:01:40.020
is equal to sigma divided by square root of 20,

32
00:01:40.020 --> 00:01:41.850
which is our end.

33
00:01:41.850 --> 00:01:44.820
So now I'm going to draw our normal distribution,

34
00:01:44.820 --> 00:01:46.860
because nothing changes there.

35
00:01:46.860 --> 00:01:48.160
We are going to draw that.

36
00:01:51.300 --> 00:01:55.800
So here now is 191,

37
00:01:55.800 --> 00:01:58.023
but this now will be an X-bar.

38
00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:01.073
Okay?

39
00:02:04.230 --> 00:02:07.350
Now, we will do exactly the same thing as we did before

40
00:02:07.350 --> 00:02:10.320
because looking at the probability

41
00:02:10.320 --> 00:02:15.030
that we are trying to find out the value greater than 200.

42
00:02:15.030 --> 00:02:18.780
So just like before, we will have to transform it

43
00:02:18.780 --> 00:02:21.600
to the standard normal distribution

44
00:02:21.600 --> 00:02:24.810
so that we can use our table in the back of our book

45
00:02:24.810 --> 00:02:26.550
to find the probability.

46
00:02:26.550 --> 00:02:29.280
So now, again, I'm going to draw the area

47
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:33.483
we are looking for under the curve,

48
00:02:34.740 --> 00:02:36.693
which is, again, that 200.

49
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:39.273
Kind of seen this before.

50
00:02:41.610 --> 00:02:42.960
Okay, this is the area.

51
00:02:44.250 --> 00:02:46.750
And now we have transformed this to

52
00:02:49.380 --> 00:02:51.783
the distribution, and this is zero.

53
00:02:53.038 --> 00:02:57.300
Okay, so we have our Z-axis here with a mean of zero,

54
00:02:57.300 --> 00:02:59.610
and we need to now calculate the values.

55
00:02:59.610 --> 00:03:01.380
Again, this time the formula

56
00:03:01.380 --> 00:03:03.150
is going to be a little different.

57
00:03:03.150 --> 00:03:05.290
So it's going to be Z equal to

58
00:03:06.690 --> 00:03:10.350
X-bar minus mu

59
00:03:10.350 --> 00:03:14.913
divided by sigma and square root of N.

60
00:03:17.910 --> 00:03:20.510
So, again, the probability we are looking for is the

61
00:03:23.760 --> 00:03:26.700
value above 200, and we have to go through

62
00:03:26.700 --> 00:03:29.070
all the transformation as before.

63
00:03:29.070 --> 00:03:32.973
So now it is Z greater than.

64
00:03:35.730 --> 00:03:38.433
So we are going to use the formula here.

65
00:03:44.700 --> 00:03:45.843
Square root of 20.

66
00:03:48.420 --> 00:03:52.990
Alright, so once we do the algebra, what we find is

67
00:03:56.850 --> 00:03:59.820
this will be 1.80.

68
00:03:59.820 --> 00:04:03.990
Now, again, we have to go to the back of our text,

69
00:04:03.990 --> 00:04:07.140
and what our text will provide us, as before,

70
00:04:07.140 --> 00:04:09.453
is the value less than.

71
00:04:10.530 --> 00:04:13.560
So this is what we are getting

72
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.203
from the back of our textbook.

73
00:04:20.580 --> 00:04:24.180
So, again, going back to our normal distribution

74
00:04:24.180 --> 00:04:28.080
and using a different color,

75
00:04:28.080 --> 00:04:32.460
this is what we have right now.

76
00:04:32.460 --> 00:04:35.490
Oops, color didn't work well.

77
00:04:35.490 --> 00:04:36.903
Let's see, yes.

78
00:04:39.180 --> 00:04:43.890
So this is the area for which we have the value,

79
00:04:43.890 --> 00:04:45.810
and we need to find the value

80
00:04:45.810 --> 00:04:49.230
for the area that's kind of highlighted in red.

81
00:04:49.230 --> 00:04:51.030
So what do we do here, again?

82
00:04:51.030 --> 00:04:52.620
Thankfully we know

83
00:04:52.620 --> 00:04:57.240
that the entire area under the curve is one.

84
00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:59.970
So basically we have to deduct it from one.

85
00:04:59.970 --> 00:05:02.913
So let's do that without any further delay.

86
00:05:05.370 --> 00:05:10.320
So P, probability

87
00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:14.010
that the Z is greater than 1.80

88
00:05:14.010 --> 00:05:19.010
is basically one minus the probability

89
00:05:19.590 --> 00:05:23.133
that the Z less than 1.80.

90
00:05:24.930 --> 00:05:28.443
So the what's gonna then be one minus point-

91
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:34.858
Oops, sorry.

92
00:05:34.858 --> 00:05:36.690
It should be 0.9641,

93
00:05:41.502 --> 00:05:43.540
and this will be

94
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:50.040
0.0359.

95
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:51.730
And that is basically

96
00:05:53.580 --> 00:05:55.043
3.59%.

97
00:05:58.380 --> 00:05:59.520
So what does that mean?

98
00:05:59.520 --> 00:06:01.560
So, again, given the values,

99
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.730
if we take a sample of 20 children from this population,

100
00:06:05.730 --> 00:06:10.730
then there is a 3.59% probability

101
00:06:11.070 --> 00:06:14.130
that the mean cholesterol of those 20 children

102
00:06:14.130 --> 00:06:15.667
will be greater than 200.
