According to the census bureau publication: current construction reports, the mean price of new mobile homes is 63,500. The standard deviation of the prices is 5,500.
a). For samples 100 new mobile homes, determine the mean and standard deviation of all possible sample mean prices (hint: find u-x and o-x)
b). Repeat part a for samples of size 200
Solution :
Given that ,
mean = = 63500
standard deviation = = 5500
a) n = 100
= = 63500
= / n = 5500/ 100 = 550
Given that ,
b) n = 200
= = 63500
= / n = 5500 / 200 = 388.91
