A bank is reviewing its risk management policies with regards to mortgages. To minimize the risk of lending, the bank wants to c

ompare the typical mortgage owed by their clients against other homebuyers. The average mortgage owed by Americans is $306,500, with a standard deviation of $24,500. Suppose a random sample of 150 Americans is selected. Identify each of the following, rounding your answers to the nearest cent when appropriate:
1. $mu=?
2. $sigma=?
3. $=n=$
4. $mu_{overlinex}=$x=?

Answer:

1. $ \mu = \$306,500 $

2. \sigma = \$24,500

3. n = 150

4. $ \mu_{x}= \mu = \$306,500 $

5. \sigma_x = \$ 2,000 \\\\

Step-by-step explanation:

The average mortgage owed by Americans is $306,500, with a standard deviation of $24,500.

From the above information, we know that,  

The population mean is

$ \mu = \$306,500 $

The population standard deviation is

\sigma = \$24,500

Suppose a random sample of 150 Americans is selected

n = 150

Since the sample size is quite large then according to the central limit theorem, the sample mean is approximately normally distributed.

The sample mean would be the same as the population mean  that is

$ \mu_{x}= \mu = \$306,500 $

The sample standard deviation is given by

\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Where \sigma is the population standard deviation and n is the sample size.

\sigma_x = \frac{24,500}{\sqrt{150} }  \\\\\sigma_x = \$ 2,000 \\\\

Therefore, the required parameters are:

1. $ \mu = \$306,500 $

2. \sigma = \$24,500

3. n = 150

4. $ \mu_{x}= \mu = \$306,500 $

5. \sigma_x = \$ 2,000 \\\\

What is this? I don't know and I'm struggling bad please help
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

steeper

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

The slope has been changed from 2 to 4. The higher the slope, the steeper it is. Thus, the slope is steeper now.
