1. Preliminaries Remember the setup: We (the RAF in World War II) want to know the number of warplanes fielded by the Germans. T

hat number is N. The warplanes have serial numbers from 1 to N, so N is also equal to the largest serial number on any of the warplanes. We only see a small number of serial numbers (assumed to be a random sample with replacement from among all the serial numbers), so we have to use estimation. Question 1.1 Is N a population parameter or a statistic? If we compute a number using our random sample that's an estimate of N, is that a population parameter or a statistic?

Answer:

N is a population parameter; the computation using an estimate of N is a statistic.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is a measure of a population.  The number of warplanes fielded total is N; this makes it the population.  Thus N is a parameter.

A statistics is a measure of a sample.  The number computed using an estimate of N would be based on a sample, since it is an estimate of N; this makes it a statistic.

Each year, all final year students take a mathematics exam. It is hypothesized that the population mean score for this test is 8
drek231 [11]

Answer:

95% Confidence interval:  (96.06,103.94)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 85

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 100

Sample size, n = 30

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 11

95% Confidence interval:

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

100 \pm 1.96(\frac{11}{\sqrt{30}} ) = 100 \pm 3.94= (96.06,103.94)

(96.06,103.94) is the 95% confidence interval for  the population mean test score.
