- The distribution of the number of motor vehicles per household in the United States (the population) and sampling distributions of the mean for samples of size 4 and 10 are shown in below. A.Which distribution is which? Make a rough estimate of the mean and standard deviation of each distribution. Explain the reasons of your choices.b. The mean of the population is about 1.7. Theoretically, what is the mean of the sampling distribution for samples of size 4? Of size 10? Are these computed means consistent with your estimates of the means in the histograms? Briefly explain.c. The standard deviation of the population is about 1. Theoretically, what is the Standard Error (SE) of the sampling distribution for samples of size 4? Of size 10? Are these computed SEs consistent with your estimates of the SEs in the histograms? Briefly explain.d. Compare the shapes of the three distributions. Are the shapes consistent with the Central Limit Theorem? Briefly explain.arrow_forwardConsider a set of data in which the sample mean is 30.230.2 and the sample standard deviation is 7.87.8.
