1) True or False: The probability that a standard normal variable, Z, is below 1.96 is 0.4750.

       
 
Tr

2) True or False: The probability that a standard normal variable, Z, falls between -1.50 and 0.81 is
0.7242.         
 

3) True or False: The amount of bleach a machine pours into bottles has a mean of 36 oz. with a
standard deviation of 0.15 oz. Suppose we take a random sample of 36 bottles filled by this
machine. The sampling distribution of the sample mean has a mean of 36 oz.       
 

4) True or False: The amount of time it takes to complete an examination has a left skewed
distribution with a mean of 65 minutes and a standard deviation of 8 minutes. If 64 students were
randomly sampled, the probability that the sample mean of the sampled students exceeds 71
minutes is approximately 0.    
 

5) True or False: Suppose μ = 50 and σ = 10 for a population. In a sample where n = 100 is

randomly taken, 95% of all possible sample means will fall between 48.04 and 51.96.          
 

6) True or False: If the population distribution is skewed, in most cases the sampling distribution of
the mean can be approximated by the normal distribution if the samples contain at least 30
observations.
 

7) A 90% confidence interval calculated from the same data would be narrower than a 99%
confidence interval.  
 

8) Given a sample mean of 2.1 and a sample standard deviation of 0.7 from a sample of 10 data
points, a 90% confidence interval will have a width of 2.36.
