2. Consider a large population with mean μ and known standard deviation σ = 5. There are two independent simple random samples of this population, one with n 150, and the other with n2 = 400, Denote the two sample means by , and X2, respectively. Let Cli and C12 be the usual 95% confidence intervals, constructed from each of the two samples. What is the probability that at the same time, X E CI2 and X2 E CI?

1. Select all true statements about sample mean and sample median. A) When the population distribution is skewed, sample mean is biased but sample median is an unbiased estimator of population mean. B) When the population distribution is symmetric, both mean and sample median are unbiased estimators of population mean. C) Sampling distribution of sample mean has a smaller standard error than sample median when population distribution is normal. D) Both mean and median are unbiased estimators of population mean...
6.1.6. A process for making steel pipe is under control if the diameter of the pipe has mean 3.0 in. with standard deviation of no more than 0.0250 in. To check whether the process is under control, a random sample of size n 30 is taken each day and the null hypothesis 3.0 is rejected if X is less than 2.9960 or greater than 3.0040. Find (a) the probability of type I error; (b) the probability of type II error...
Problem #2 (5 pts) The sample mean of 13 bowling balls measured off the manufacturing line is 10.12 lbf with a sample variance of 0.28 lbf2. Determine the range that contains the true standard deviation of all the bowling balls made at 90 % confidence in N. (Hint: use -distribution to get range for sample variation)
1. A population is known to have a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 1.1. A sample of size 32 is randomly selected from the population. a. What is the probability that the sample mean is less than 9.9? b. What percent of the population is greater than 10.2? c. What’s the probability that the sample mean is greater than 10.5?
The mean commute time for all commuting students of a university is 23 minutes with a population standard deviation of 4 minutes. A random sample of 63 driving times of commuters is taken. ̅ a) [2pts] Is the sampling distribution of the sample mean ? normal? Circle the number of i. ii. iii. iv. b) the best answer. Yes, because the sample size n is greater than 30. No, because the parent population of the data is not said to...
