The diameter of a brand of tennis balls is approximatelynormally​ distributed, with a mean of
2.71
inches and a standard deviation of
0.05
inch. A random sample of
11
tennis balls is selected. Complete parts​ (a)through​ (d) below.
Question content area bottom
Part 1
a. What is the sampling distribution of the​ mean?
A.Because the population diameter of tennis balls isapproximately normally​ distributed, the sampling distributionof samples of size
11
will also be approximately normal.
B.Because the population diameter of tennis balls isapproximately normally​ distributed, the sampling distributionof samples of size
11
will be the uniform distribution.
C.Because the population diameter of tennis balls isapproximately normally​ distributed, the sampling distributionof samples of size
11
cannot be found.
D.Because the population diameter of tennis balls isapproximately normally​ distributed, the sampling distributionof samples of size
11
will not be approximately normal.
Part 2
b. What is the probability that the sample mean is less than
2.68
​inches?

Part 3
c. What is the probability that the sample mean is between
2.69
and
2.73
​inches?
​P(2.69<X<2.73​)=enter your response here
​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)
