A population consists of the values (1, 3, 5, 7). Consider a sample size of 2 that can be
drawn from this population.

a. Determine the number of sets of all possible random samples that can be drawn from
the given population by using the formula, NCn, where N is the population size and n is
the sample size. Write your solution in the box below.
Given the population of 1, 3, 5 and 7 and a sample size is 2, we have

PERFORMANCE TASK
Directions: Perform what is being asked. Write your answer on the table provided below.
Given the population of numbers 3, 6, 8, 9, and 4. Suppose samples of size 3 are drawn
from this population.

1. What is the mean and variance of the population?

X (a) X −n (b) (X −n)2
3 -7 49
6 -4 16
8 -1 4
9 -2 1
4 -6 36

2. How many different samples of size 3 can be drawn from the population? List them with
their corresponding mean.
Samples Mean
3, 6, 8 ( 3+6+ 8 ) ÷3=¿5.67
3, 6, 9 6
3, 6, 4 4.33
6, 8, 9 7.67
6, 8, 4 6
8, 9, 4 7
8, 9, 3 6.67
9, 4, 3 5.33
9, 4, 6 6.33

3. Construct the sampling distribution of the sample means.

Sampling Distribution of Sample Means
Sample Mean (X ) Frequency Probability [ P ( X ) ]
5.67 1 1/10 = 0.10
6 2 2/10→1/5 = 0.20
4.33 1 1/10 = 0.10
7.67 1 1/10 = 0.10
7 1 1/10 = 0.10
6.67 1 1/10 = 0.10
5.33 1 1/10 = 0.10
5 1 1/10 = 0.10
 4. What is the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample means? Compare to the
mean of the population.
X P( X) X ⋅ P( X)
5.67 1/10 0.567
6 1/5 0.60
4.33 1/10 0.433
7.67 1/10 0.767
7 1/10 0.70
6.67 1/10 0.667
5.33 1/10 0.533
6.33 1/10 0.633
5 1/10 0.50
Total 1.00 5.4

The mean of the sampling distribution of the sample mean is 5.4.

5. What is the variance of the sampling distribution of the sample means?

6 1/5 0.6 0.36 0.072
4.33 1/10 -1.07 1.1449 0.11449
7.67 1/10 2.27 5.1529 0.51529
7 1/10 1.6 2.56 0.256
6.67 1/10 1.27 1.6129 0.16129
5.33 1/10 -0.07 0.0049 0.00049
6.33 1/10 0.93 0.8649 0.08649
5 1/10 -0.4 0.16 0.16
Total 1.00 1.23

The variance of the sampling distribution is 1.23.

B. Give what is being asked.

Instructions: Read and analyze the given situation and supply the value of the
variables (if there are any). On the second column, write known on the space provided if the
situation gives data needed to compute the value of the variance, otherwise write unknown. On
the third column, identify the formula to be used to estimate the standard error of the mean by
writing the symbols σ x , when the population variance is known and s x when the population
variance is unknown.

Situation Given Answer Standard error

formula
A population composed of 9
items whose measurements N=a known σx
are 10, 5, 6, 11, 13, 12, 19, n=5
15, and 22. Samples of 5
items are drawn at random
without replacement.
