    The population is the weight of six pumpkins (in pounds) displayed in a carnival "guess the

    weight" game booth. You are asked to guess the average weight of the six pumpkins by taking a
    random sample without replacement from the population.

    Pumpkin A B C D E F
    Weight (in pounds) 19 14 15 9 16 17

    a. Calculate the population mean .

    b. Obtain the sampling distribution of the sample mean for a sample size of 2 when one samples without
    replacement.

    Obtain the sampling distribution for the sample mean when the sample size is 5.
