A simple random sample of 60 items resulted in a sample mean of 80. The population standard deviation is σ = 15. a. Compute the

95% confidence interval for the population mean. b. Assume that the same sample mean was obtained from a sample of 120 times. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. c. What is the effect of a larger sample size on the interval estimate?

Answer:

a) (76.21,83.79)

b) (77.32,82.68)    

c) Interval decreases    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Sample size, n = 60

Sample mean = 80

Sample standard Deviation, s = 15

a) 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

80 \pm 1.96(\dfrac{15}{\sqrt{60}} ) = 80 \pm 3.79 = (76.21,83.79)

b) Sample size, n = 120

95% Confidence interval:

80 \pm 1.96(\dfrac{15}{\sqrt{120}} ) = 80 \pm 2.68 = (77.32,82.68)

c) As observed increasing the sample size, the confidence interval become smaller.

Select all of the following tables which represent y as a function of x.x 5 10 11y 3 9 15x 5 10 11y 3 9 9x 5 10 10y 3 9 15

Answer:

Table 1 and 2 represent a function

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

<em>Table 1</em>

x 5 10 11

y 3 9 15

<em></em>

<em>Table 2</em>

x 5 10 11

y 3 9 9

<em>Table 3</em>

x 5 10 10

y 3 9 15

Required

Determine which of the tables represent that y is a function of x

For a relation to be a function; the x values must be unique.

In other words, each x value must not be repeated;

Having said that;

Analyzing Table 1

<em>Table 1</em>

x 5 10 11

y 3 9 15

<em></em>

Note that the x rows are unique as no value were repeated;

Hence, Table 1 is a function

<em>Table 2</em>

x 5 10 11

y 3 9 9

Note that the x rows are unique as no value were repeated;

Hence, Table 2 is a function

<em>Table 3</em>

x 5 10 10

y 3 9 15

Note that the x rows are not unique because 10 was repeated twice;

Hence, Table 3 is not a function
