Question
- (Case A) Repeatedly take samples of size 28 from this population and in each case compute the sample mean, . Let x-bar(A)and sigma(A) be respectively the mean and the standard deviation of these sample means.
- (Case B) Repeatedly take
sample of size 64 from this population and in each case compute the sample mean, . Let x-bar(B) and sigma(B) be respectively the mean and the standard deviation of these sample means.
1)Choose the most appropriate option.
sigma(A) greater than sigma(B)
sigma (A) not less than sigma (B)
sigma (A) lessthan sigma (B)
sigma (A)= sigma (B)
2)If the population standard deviation, σ, is 32, then 95% of the sample means in case B fall in this interval. (168,184), (171,181),(164,188),(172,180)
3)In case B, the percent of the sample means that are less than 177.2 is
0.6179, 0.7376, 0.7257, 0.7179

- The frequency distribution was obtained using a class width of 0.5 for data on cigarette tax rates. Use the frequency distribution to approximate the population mean and population standard deviation. Compare these results to the actual mean μ=$1.502 and standard deviation σ=$1.031.arrow_forwardLet a population consist of the values 7 cigarettes, 8 cigarettes, and 19 cigarettes smoked in a day. Show that when samples of size 2 are randomly selected with replacement, the samples have mean absolute deviations that do not center about the value of the mean absolute deviation of the population. What does this indicate about a sample mean absolute deviation being used as an estimator of the mean absolute deviation of a population?
