Question
The sampling distribution attached shows sample
1. Using the sampling distribution, how likely is x-bar=55.6? Reasonably likely to occur from sample of this size, unusual but might occur occasionally, or extremely unlikely to occur.
2.using the sampling distribution, how likely is x-bar=64.2? Reasonably likely to occur from sample of this size, unusual but might occur occasionally, or extremely unlikely to ever occur.

You ask an SRS of 1500 college students whether they applied for admission to any other college. Suppose that in fact 35% of all college students applied to colleges besides the one they are attending. The sampling distribution of the proportion of B your sample who say "Yes" is approximately Normal with mean 0.35 and standard deviation 0.01. Sketch this Normal curve and use it to answer the following questions. (You can use the 68-95-99.7 rule for all these questions.) Round to nearest whole percent. (a) What percentage of many samples would have a larger than 0.37? 2.5 (b) What is the probability that your sample will have a less than 0.33?Å (c) what is the probability that your sample result will be either less than 0.33 or greater than 0.35?arrow_forwardSuppose I want to sample the household incomes for EBR parish.

For each problem, begin by computing the standard error of the mean, using the formula: OM Then make two diagrams of the problem-one in terms of the actual scores, and one in terms of the z scores; mark the area under investigation on each curve. Show calculation of the appropriate z scores. List the line(s) from the z score table that you use to answer the question. Provide a verbal answer to each question. a.
