If the population is distributed as with mean = and variance =
Then the mean of sample of size n from this population have sampling distribution with mean = and var =
So, the larger organization should have sampling distribution of mean = 151 and sd =
and the smaller organization should have sampling distribution of mean =151 and sd =
a) Option c . Both distribution will have a mean of 151
b) A mean score of 161 is 3 sd above the mean of smaller organization and 8 sd above the larger organization .
So, The smaller organization is more likely .
c)
A mean score of 161 is 1.5 sd below the mean of smaller organization and 4 sd below the larger organization .
So, The smaller organization is more likely .
A standardized test for graduate school admission has a mean score of 151 with a standard...
Suppose student test scores for a nationwide standardized test have an unknown distribution with mean 230 and standard deviation 34 points. A sample of size n=45 is randomly taken from the population and the mean is taken. Using the Central Limit Theorem for Means, what is the standard deviation for the sample mean distribution?
The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is designed so that test scores are normally distributed. The mean LSAT score for the population of all test-takers in 2005 was 154.35, with a standard deviation of 5.62. If you drew all possible random samples of size 100 from the population of LSAT test-takers and plotted the values of the mean from each sample, the resulting distribution would be the sampling distribution of the mean. Based on Centeral Limit Theorium, What is the...
According to the data, the mean quantitative score on a standardized test for female college-bound high school seniors was 500. The scores are approximately Normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 100. What percentage of the female college-bound high school seniors had scores above 637? Answer this question by completing parts (a) through (g) below. e. Use the Normal table to find the area to the left of the z-score that was obtained from a standardized test score of...
27. On a standardized test with a normal distribution, the mean was 64.3 and the standard deviation was 5.4. What is the best approximation of the percent of scores that fell between 61.6 and 75.1? 28. The mean of a normally distributed set of data is 52 and the standard deviation is 4. Approximately 95% of all the cases will lie between which measures? 29. Battery lifetime is normally distributed for large samples. The mean lifetime is 500 days and...
On a nationwide test taken by high school students, the mean score was 51 and the standard deviation was 11 The scores were normally distributed. Complete the following statements. (a) Approximately ?% of the students scored between 40 and 62 . (b) Approximately 95% of the students scored between ? and ?
A nationwide test taken by high school sophomores and juniors has three sections, each scored on a scale of 20 to 80. In a recent year, the national mean score for the writing section was 51.5, with a standard deviation of 10.9. Based on this information, complete the following statements about the distribution of the scores on the writing section for the recent year.(a) According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least 8 / 9 (about 89%) of the scores lie between...
3. According to data, the mean quantitative score on a standardized test for female college-bound high school seniors was 500. The scores are approximately normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 100. What percentage of the female college-bound high school seniors had scores above 725? Use a standard normal table or appropriate technology.
The mean exam score for 44 male high school students is 20.1 and the population standard deviation is 4.7. The mean exam score for 58 female high school students is 19.6 and the population standard deviation is 4.1. At a = 0.01, can you reject the claim that male and female high school students have equal exam scores? Complete parts (a) through (e). Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page...
Test scores on a Spanish language proficiency exam given to entering first year students at a certain university have a mean score of 78 with a standard deviation of 9 points (out of 100 points possible). 3.b Suppose a random sample of 50 first year students who took this Spanish placement exam will be selected, each of their scores are recorded, and the sample mean score out of 100 points will be computed. What can be said about the probability...
A researcher was asked to estimate mean GPA of all students at Pace University in 2016. He has selected at random 30 students and calculated their mean GPA. It was found to be equal to 3.2. The sample size e) f) Number of classes the researcher can use to summarize his findings (hint: use 2>n) g) Can the researcher apply central limit theorem? (yes /no) Explain h) What is the shape of this sampling distribution? (normal / approximately normal) (hint:...
