Answer:

Se=1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard error is the standard deviation of a sample population. "It measures the accuracy with which a sample represents a population".

The central limit theorem (CLT) states "that the distribution of sample means approximates a normal distribution, as the sample size becomes larger, assuming that all samples are identical in size, and regardless of the population distribution shape"

The sample mean is defined as:

\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}

And the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

Let X denotes the random variable that measures the particular characteristic of interest. Let, X1, X2, …, Xn be the values of the random variable for the n units of the sample.

As the sample size is large,(>30) it can be assumed that the distribution is normal. The standard error of the sample mean X bar is given by:

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

If we replace the values given we have:

Se=\frac{12}{\sqrt{100}}=1.2

So then the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is:

\bar X \sim N(\mu=80,Se=1.2)

Answer:

XV = 4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

TV/WV = UV/XV (similarity theorem)

TW = 9

WV = 3

UV = 19

TV = 9 + 3 = 12

XV = ?

Plug in the values

12/3 = 19/XV

4 = 19/XV

XV × 4 = 19

XV = 19/4

XV = 4.75
