The following table provides the starting players of a basketball team and their heights

Player	A	B	C	D	E
Height (in.)	75	77	78	81	84

a. The population mean height of the five players is: 79

b. Find the sample means for samples of size 2.
A, B: ?¯ =
A, C: ?¯ =
A, D: ?¯ =
A, E: ?¯=
B, C: ?¯ =
B, D: ?¯ =
B, E: ?¯ =
C, D: ?¯=
C, E: ?¯=
D, E: ?¯=

For a random sample of size 2 what is the chance that the sample mean will equal the population mean? That is, P(?¯=?) = .

For a random sample of size 2, the probability that ?¯ will be within 1 inch of ? is .

e. Find the sample means for samples of size 4.
A, B, C, D: ?¯ =
A, B, C, E: ?¯=
A, B, D, E: ?¯=
A, C, D, E: ?¯=
B, C, D, E: ?¯=

For a random sample of size 4 what is the chance that the sample mean will equal the population mean? That is, P(?¯=?) =

Two basketball players on a school team are working hard on consistency of their performance. In particular, they are hoping to bring down the variance of their scores. The coach believes that the players are not equally consistent in their games. Over a 10-game period, the scores of these two players are shown below. Assume that the two samples are drawn independently from normally distributed populations. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or F...
