Answer:

B. This statement is false. A true statement is, "As the size of a sample increases, the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation of distribution of sample means = \sigma_{m}

Sample size = n

Population standard deviation = \sigma

The formula to calculate the standard deviation of distribution of sample means is:

\sigma_{m}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

From the above relation we can see that:

Standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is inversely related to the sample size. In inverse relation if one quantity increases the other will decrease. So, if the size of the sample is increased, the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means will Decrease.

Hence, the given statement is False. Therefore, the correct answer will be:

B. This statement is false. A true statement is, "As the size of a sample increases, the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means decreases"

Round 6,703.58 to the nearest tenth
strojnjashka [21]
The tenth place is the number on the right of the decimal which is

6703.58

So to round to the nearest tenth, look at the number before it, which is 8. The rule for rounding: 5+ = round up, 4 or less = keep as same number

8 is a number that is 5+ so we round 5 (number in the tenths place) up one number

The scores on a test for a sample of 42 statistics students are summarized in the following table. 9, 90, 18, 80, 15, 70. Find t
igomit [66]
<h3>Answer:   78.6</h3>

Work Shown:

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2}\text{Number of People} & \text{Score}\\\cline{1-2}9 & 90\\\cline{1-2}18 & 80\\\cline{1-2}15 & 70\\\cline{1-2}\end{array}

Multiply across the rows to form a third column. Example: 9*90 = 810 in the first row.

\begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \cline{1-3}\text{Number of People} & \text{Score} & \text{Number*Score}\\\cline{1-3}9 & 90 & 810\\\cline{1-3}18 & 80 & 1440\\\cline{1-3}15 & 70 & 1050\\\cline{1-3}\end{array}

The values in the third column add to 810+1440+1050 = 3300

Divide this over the total number of people which is 9+18+15 = 42

The mean is 3300/42 =78.571 approximately which rounds to 78.6
