sampling distribution

In a random sample of 25 trees, the variance in height was found to be 6.9. Find the 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation. Assume that the variable is normally distributed. => between 4.9 and 13.7 or between 4.2 and 13.4 or between 5.5 and 14.1 or between 5.5 and 1..

Find the 95% confidence interval for the variance of the ages of players in a basketball team if a sample of 12 players has a standard deviation of 2 years. Assume the variable is normally distributed. => between 2 and 10 or between 2 and 13 or between 2 and 14 or between 2 and ..

A central office operator has observed that the long distance telephone calls are normally distributed with a mean of 6 minutes and a standard deviation of 2 minutes. If random samples of 32 calls were selected, what is the probability that the length of the sample mea..

The rms speed of an oxygen molecule in a sample at 300 K is about 480m/s. This does not mean that the speed of each molecule is 480 m/s. Many of the molecules have speed less than 480m/s and many have speed more than 480m/s. Maxwell derived an equation giving the distribution..

Random Variable and Probability Distribution - If is often very important to allocate a numerical value to an outcome of a random experiment. For example consider an experiment of tossing a coin twice and note the number of heads (x) obtained. Outcome : HH HT TH TT No. of heads (x) : 2 1 ..

It is often very important to allocate a numerical value to an outcome of a random experiment. For example, consider an experiment of tossing a coin twice and note the number of heads (x) obtained. Outcome HH HT TH TT No. of heads (x) 2 1 1 0 x is called a random variable, which can assume the valu..

The rms speed of an oxygen molecule in a sample at 300 K is about 480m/s. This does not mean that the speed of each molecule is 480 m/s. Many of the molecules have speed less than 480m/s and many have speed more than 480m/s. Maxwell derived an equation giving the distribution o..

Let S be a sample space associated with a given random experiment. A real valued function X which assigns to each w i S, a unique real number, X( w i ) = x i is called a random variable . Two types of random variables are 1. Continuous random variable, 2. discrete ra..

The average age of the employees in an organization is 34 years. Assume the variable is normally distributed and the standard deviation is 4. If 25 employees are selected at random, then find the probability that the sample mean age of the employees is less than 35 years. => 89...

Assume that the weights of 3,000 students at a university are normally distributed with mean 150 pounds and a standard deviation of 2.72 pounds. How many samples would you expect to find the mean below 146 pounds? => 7 or 6 or 5 or 8..
