Answer:

-6, -1, 4, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

You can substitute the values and do the arithmetic:

f(-1) = 5(-1) -1 = -5 -1 = -6

Or, you can recognize that the output values will increase by 5 for each increase of 1 in the input value.

f(0) = -6 +5 = -1

f(1) = -1 +5 = 4

f(2) = 4 +5 = 9

The (input, output) pairs are ...

(-1, -6), (0, -1), (1, 4), (2, 9)

A simple random sample of 100 observations was taken from a large population. The sample mean and the standard deviation were de

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:

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