- | + | <center></center>a. false, the standard deviation of the sample mean is <math>\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}</math>. Thus as the sample size increases, n increases, and as n increases, the standard deviation decreases. | |
- | + | <center></center>b. True | |
- | + | <center></center>c. False, standard deviation of the sample mean is <math>\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}</math> | |
- | + | <center></center>d. True, the standard deviation of the total of a sample of n observations is <math>n\sqrt \sigma</math>; but the standard deviation of the sample mean is <math>\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}.</math>Unless n is one, the standard deviation of the total of a sample of n observations exceeds the standard deviation of the sample mean. | |
- | + | <center></center>e. False, let's assume <math>\sigma=2</math> and <math>n=2</math>. In this case, the z-score for <math>P(\overline{X} > 4)</math> would be -2.828 while the z-score for <math>P(X>4)</math> would be -2. <math>P(Z>-2.828) > P(Z>-2) </math>. Therefore the statement is false. | |

- | + | <center></center>a. <math>P(X \ge 1000)= P(X=1000)+P(X=1001)+....+P(X=1500)= (1500 \choose 1000) \times (.7)^1000 \times (.3)^500 + (1500 \choose 1001) \times (.7)^1001 \times (.3)^499 + ...+(1500 \choose 1500) \times (.7)^1500 \times (.3)^0 = \summation (\1500 \choose X) \times (.7)^X \times (.3)^1500-X</math> | |
- | + | <center></center>b. We can use the normal approximation to binomial: <math>\mu = np = 1500 \times 0.70 = 1050.</math> and <math>\sigma = | |

<math>P(X \ge 1000)= P(Z> \frac{999.5-1050}{17.748}=P(Z>-2.845)=.9977</math> | <math>P(X \ge 1000)= P(Z> \frac{999.5-1050}{17.748}=P(Z>-2.845)=.9977</math> | ||

- | + | <center></center>a. <math>\overline{X} \sim N(8, \frac{20}{\sqrt400}). P(\overline{X} <6.50) =P(Z<-1.5)=.0667</math> | |

- | + | <center></center>b. ?? | |
- | + | <center></center>c. The central limit theorem states that the sample mean approaches the normal distribution as the sample size gets bigger. Usually, if <math> n \ge 30</math> we can assume that the sample mean approaches the normal distribution. In this case <math>n=400</math>. Therefore n satisfies the requirement of a large n. | |
