Consider a sample ₁, 2,...,n and suppose that the values of and s² have been calculated. Let y₁ = axi + b for i=1,2,. n. How do the sample mean and the sample variance of the yi's relate to and s² respectively? Verify your conjectures.

Answer T for true or F for false: a. Nonparametric methods rely on fewer assumptions about populations being sampled than do parametric methods. ____   b. Statistical power is about the same with nonparametric and parametric methods. ______

I need answers for questions a and b please.

please see attached thanks

Let x be a random variable that represents red blood cell count (RBC) in millions of cells per cubic millimeter of whole blood. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal. For the population of healthy female adults, suppose the mean of the x distribution is about 4.78. Suppose that a female patient has taken six laboratory blood tests over the past several months and that the RBC count data sent to the patient's doctor are as follows. 4.9 4.2 4.5 4.1 4.4 4.3 (i) Use a calculator with sample mean and standard deviation keys to find x and s. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) x =   s =   (ii) Do the given data indicate that the population mean RBC count for this patient is lower than 4.78? Use ? = 0.05. (a) What is the level of significance?State the null and alternate hypotheses.

One of the following is the minimum variance unbiased estimator for u. The sample variance. The sample mean. The sample mean square error. The meadian.

can you please provide explanations

Let x be a random variable that represents red blood cell count (RBC) in millions of cells per cubic millimeter of whole blood. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal. For the population of healthy female adults, suppose the mean of the x distribution is about 4.64. Suppose that a female patient has taken six laboratory blood tests over the past several months and that the RBC count data sent to the patient's doctor are as follows. 4.9 4.2 4.5 4.1 4.4 4.3 (1) Use a calculator with sample mean and standard deviation keys to find x and s. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) x=| S= (ii) Do the given data indicate that the population mean RBC count for this patient is lower than 4.64? Use a = 0.05.
