Describe a real world situation that can be modeled by 5t

1 answer:

3 0

I used to shovel snow for $5 an hour.

If ' t ' was the number of hours I spent shoveling somebody's driveway,
then ' 5t ' was the number of dollars he owed me for the job.

' t ' didn't even have to be a whole number. It worked fine with any number.

According to a recent publication, the mean price of new mobile homes is $63 comma 800. Assume a standard deviation of $7900.

Answer:

a. For n=25, the mean and standard deviation of the prices of the mobile homes all possible sample mean prices are $63,800 and $1,580, respectively.

b. For n=50, the mean and standard deviation of the prices of the mobile homes all possible sample mean prices are $63,800 and $1,117, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, for each sample size, we have a sampling distribution (a distribution for the population of sample means), with the following parameters:

$\mu_s=\mu=63,800\\\\\sigma_s=\sigma/\sqrt{n}=7,900/\sqrt{n}$

For n=25 we have:

$\mu_s=\mu=63,800\\\\\sigma_s=\sigma/\sqrt{n}=7,900/\sqrt{25}=7,900/5=1,580$

The spread of the sampling distribution is always smaller than the population spread of the individuals. The spread is smaller as the sample size increase.

This has the implication that is expected to have more precision in the estimation of the population mean when we use bigger samples than smaller ones.

If n=50, we have:

$\mu_s=\mu=63,800\\\\\sigma_s=\sigma/\sqrt{n}=7,900/\sqrt{50}=7,900/7.07=1,117$
