Question
What is wrong?
a) The population standard deviation is 10, then the standard deviation of x, with line on top of it for an SRS of 10 observations is 10/10= 1.
b) When taking SRS's from a population, larger sample sizes will result in larger standard deviation of x with line on.
c) For an srs from a population, both
d) The larger the population size N, the larger the sample size n needs to be for a desired standard deviation of X with line on top.

- 6.) The mean weight for bags of chips is believed to be 16oz. A researcher believes that the actual mean weight is significantly lower than this. The researcher measures the weights of a sample of 31 bags, and finds that the mean of the sample is 15oz, with a sample standard deviation of 4oz.

If a 32-week gestation period baby weighs 2650 grams and a 41-week gestation period baby weighs 3150 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to the gestation period? Find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs relatively more? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) A. The baby born in week 41 weighs relatively more since its z-score, nothing, is smaller than the z-score of nothing for the baby born in week 32. B. The baby born in week 32 weighs relatively more since its z-score, nothing, is smaller than the z-score of nothing for the baby born in week 41. C. The…arrow_forward
