NIM:

1. The fuel consumption, in miles per galon, of all cars of particular model has mean 27 and standard deviation 4. The population distribution can be assumed to be normal. A random sample of these cars is taken. Find the probability that sample mean fuel consumption will be less than 25 miles per galon when a. A sample of one observation is taken b. A sample of four observations is taken c. A sample of sixteen observation is taken 2. For a random sample of 100 smokers, the mean of short-term absenteeism from work was 3 hours per month, and the sample standard deviation is 2.75 hours per month. For an independent sample of 300 employees who had never smoke, the mean amount of absenteeism is 1. 5 hours per month and the sample standard deviation is 1.75 hours per month. Find the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population mean. 3. true or false a. as n (sample size) gets bigger, so does st eror b, a minimum MSE estimator is defined as the most efficient
