Have a standard curve and determine the
concentration of the samples. Get the mean, standard deviation for
the two samples tested in triplicate and run a t.test. Is there a
difference between the two samples? These were two different sets
of serum (two different pigs). I would think they will be different
but let's see.

An unknown distribution has a mean of 50 and a standard
deviation of ten samples of size n=30 are drawn randomly from
population. Find the probability that the sample mean is between 45
and 55.
If two samples A and B had the same mean and standard deviation,
but sample A had a larger sample size, which sample would have the
wider 95% confidence interval? Homework Help: Sample B as it has
the smaller sample Sample B as its sample is more dispersed Sample
A as it has the larger sample Sample A as it comes first

this populations will be between 62.5 and 67.1 is:

5. The length of needles produced by a machine has standard
deviation of 0.02 inches. Assuming that the distribution is normal,
how large a sample is needed to determine with a precision of
±0.006 inches the mean length of the produced needles to 98%
confidence?
True or False. For samples with fewer individuals, it is a
standard practice to use the t score value in place of a z score
value when calculating a confidence interval at any level of
confidence.
Consider a large population which has true mean µ and true
standard deviation σ. We take a sample of size 3 from this
population, thinking of the sample as the RVs X1, X2, X3 where Xi
can be considered iid (independent identically distributed). We are
interested in estimating µ.
(a) Consider the estimator ˆµ1 = X1 + X2 − X3. Is this estimator
biased? Show your work
(b) Find the variance of ˆµ1.
(c) Consider the estimator ˆµ2 = X1+X2+X3...
In this problem, we explore the effect on the standard
