How to solve for X with a mean = 9, deviation = 3 and a sample size of 25, P( sample mean > 8) is

Expert Solution

Population mean, µ =    9
Population standard deviation, σ =    3
Sample size, n =    25

P( x̅ > 8)
= P( (x̅-μ)/(σ/√n) > ( 8 - 9 )/(3/√25 ) )
= P( z > -1.6667 )
= 1 - P( z < -1.6667)
Using excel function:
= 1- NORM.S.DIST( -1.6667 , 1)
= 0.9522

Let X ∼ N(µ, σ) and X¯ be sample mean from a random sample of 9....

Let X ∼ N(µ, σ) and X¯ be sample mean from a random sample of 9. Suppose you draw a random sample of 9, calculate an interval ¯x ± 0.5σ where σ is the population standard deviation of X, and then check whether µ, the population mean, is contained in the interval or not. If you repeat this process 100 times, about how many time do you think µ is contained in X¯ ± 0.5σ. Explain why. (Hint: What is...

Suppose x has a distribution with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 3. Random samples of size n = 36 are drawn. (a) Describe the x bar distribution. -x bar has an unknown distribution. -x bar has a binomial distribution. -x bar has a Poisson distribution. -x bar has a geometric distribution. -x bar has a normal distribution. -x bar has an approximately normal distribution. Compute the mean and standard deviation of the distribution. (For each answer,...

Population 1 has an estimated mean of 50 and a sample standard deviation of 3 while population 2 has a sample mean of 48 and a sample standard deviation of 4. A sample of size 16 is taken for each population. Given that the sample sizes are small, we have to "pool the variances," operating on the assumption that the variances are equal. What is the value of pooled variance? What is the standard error of the difference in means,...
