Answer:

The lower bound is, [tex]-z=-0.69[/tex] and the upper bound is [tex]z=0.69[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X follows a normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation σ.

The the random variable Z, defined as [tex]Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] is standardized random variable also known as a standard normal random variable. The random variable  [tex]Z\sim N(0, 1)[/tex].

The standard normal random variable has a symmetric distribution.

It is provided that [tex]P(-z\leq Z\leq z)=0.51[/tex].

Determine the upper and lower bound as follows:

[tex]P(-z\leq Z\leq z)=0.51\\P(Z\leq z)-P(Z\leq -z)=0.51\\P(Z\leq z)-[1-P(Z\leq z)]=0.51\\2P(Z\leq z)-1=0.51\\2P(Z\leq z)=1.51\\P(Z\leq z)=0.755[/tex]

Use a standard normal table to determine the value of z.

The value of z such that P (Z ≤ z) = 0.755 is 0.69.

The lower bound is, [tex]-z=-0.69[/tex] and the upper bound is [tex]z=0.69[/tex].

The lower bound is -0.69 and the upper bound is 0.69.

Given

The probability is 51​% that the sample means will be between what two​ values, symmetrically distributed around the population​ mean.

Symmetrical distribution

Symmetrical distribution is a situation in which the values of variables occur at regular frequencies, and the mean, median, and mode occur at the same point.

Let the random variable x follows a normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation σ.

The random variable is defined as the;

[tex]\rm Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The upper and lower bound is given as;

[tex]\rm P(-z\leq Z\leq z)=0.51\\\\P(Z\leq z)-P(Z\leq -z)=0.51\\\\P(Z\leq z)-(1-P(Z\leq z))=0.51\\\\2p(Z\leq z)-1=0.51\\\\2p(Z\leq z)=0.51+1\\\\2p(Z\leq z)=1.51\\\\p(Z\leq z)=\dfrac{1.51}{2}\\\\p(Z\leq z)=0.69[/tex]

Hence, the lower bound is -0.69 and the upper bound is 0.69.
