(a) A random sample of female college students has a mean height of 65 inches, which is greater than the 64-inch mean height of all young women, 1. Is the 65 inches a parameter or a statistic? (@) parameter (b) statistic Ans: Statistic 5) 2. Is the 64 inches a parameter or a statistic? (a) parameter (b) statistic Ans: (1.5) (b) Random samples of size 36 are taken from an infinite population whose mean is 80 and standard deviation is 18. The mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means are, respectively, a) 80 and 18 b) 80 and 2 ©) 80 and 3 4)36and2 Ans: 80 and 2 (1.5) 2. (a) The parameter that determines the shape of the chi-square distribution is known as a, the mean, b, the standard deviation. amscannel(o (b) (a) 4.5 © degrees of freedom UW the variance. Ans; Ce (1.5) Which of the following is not a property of the student's ¢ distribution? @. It is symmetric. b. It's exact shape (i.., spread) is characterized by the degrees of freedom. “~~ © As the sample size grows, it gradually approaches the normal distribution, ( 4. All of the above are properties ofthe t distribution. Ans: (15) When estimating the popu mean from a normal population with un- known variance, the t distribution may be used with degrees of freedom. bone : ans (C= NU (15) For the normal population the standard deviation o is known, the sampling distribution of sample mean is: a. the t-distribution, c. the normal distribution. Oi d. None of the above Ans: (pid Ee (1.5) If the variance of the sample mean is 25, and the sample size is 6, the population variance is ea 0.25 ves 2 ©. 150 \ 4. cannot be determined.

Which of the following statements about the sampling distribution of the sample mean is incorrect? a) The sampling distribution is generated by repeatedly taking samples of size n and computing the sample means. c) The sampling distribution is approximately normal whenever the sample size is sufficiently large (n 2 30) a ) The mean of the sampling distribution of sample mean is. Ans ar (1.5) b) The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean is 0. © Best wishes Page 3 ee Scanned with CamScanner
