ACTIVITY: Solve for the following
1. Compute the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean when you plan to have
a simple random sampling of size 64 from a population with mean of 44 and standard deviation of 16.
2. Random samples of size 225 are drawn from a population with mean 100 and standard deviation 20. Find the
mean and variance of the sample mean.
3. Random samples of size 64 are drawn from a population with mean 32 and standard deviation 5. Find the mean
and variance of the sample mean.
4. With the same distribution of young women's height where the mean is 52.5 inches and a standard deviation of
6.25 inches, what will be your new sample mean and standard deviation for a sample size of 100?
5. If a random sample of 81 are taken from a population with a mean (µ) of 5.75 and standard deviation of 1.02,
then what will be the mean and variance of the sample mean.
