Let the sample size be n = 700. The random quantity V = (Ybar +6−θ) is

a pivotal quantity for θ. The distribution of V is approximately normal with

mean 6.5 and variance 0.05 . Use this information to construct a 90% confidence 1200

interval for θ with equal tail probabilities.

1. A random sample of size n = 10 is taken from a large population. Let μ be the unknown population mean. A test is planned of H0: μ=12vs. HA: μ̸=12usingα=0.1. A QQ plot indicates it is reasonable to assume a normal population. From the sample, x̄ = 14.2 and s = 4.88. (I suggest doing this problem with a calculator and table as practice for exams. You may check your answers with R if you wish.) (a) Since the...
