An industrial/organizational psychologist is consulting with Family Practice Pediatrics, which has just lost several of its best

doctors to a rival pediatric practice. The management at Family Practice would like to know what it can do to increase job satisfaction for its remaining pediatricians. The psychologist is trying to determine whether significant information will be lost if she surveys a subset rather than every single pediatrician at Family Practice.
The following table lists the job satisfaction scores for all eight pediatricians at Family Practice as well as four examples of possible four-pediatrician samples. At the bottom of the table, the variance listed in the second column for all eight pediatricians is the population variance for the eight pediatricians (that is, sigma^2 = SS/N = SS/8). The variances listed in the third through the sixth columns are the sample variances for each of the four-pediatrician samples (that is, s^2 = SS/(n - 1) = SS/3).
Pediatrician Satisfaction Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3 Sample 4
A 5 x x x
B 6 x x x x
C 8 x x x
D 3 x
E 7 x x
F 2 x
G 8 x x
H 9
Mean 6.00 6.75 6.50 5.25 6.00

What is the mean of the four sample means?
What is the mean of the four sample variances?
A sample statistic is_______ if the average value of the sample statistic, obtained over all possible samples, is equal to the population parameter.
A sample statistic is_______ if it consistently underestimates or overestimates the corresponding population parameter.
A sample mean (that is, M = sigma X/n) is_________ estimator of the population mean. A sample variance that is computed as s^2 = SS/(n - 1) is estimator of the population variance.

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

What is the mean of the four sample means is  \= x  =  6.125

What is the mean of the four sample variances is   \= x_v  =  3.71

A sample statistic is <u>an unbiased  point estimator</u>  if the average value of the sample statistic, obtained over all possible samples, is equal to the population parameter.

A sample statistic is <u>biased </u>if it consistently underestimates or overestimates the corresponding population parameter.

A sample mean (that is, M = sigma X/n) is <u>unbiased</u> estimator of the population mean

A sample variance that is computed as s^2 = SS/(n - 1) is <u>unbiased</u> estimator of the population variance.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   Mean    6.00   6.75    6.50    5.25    6.00

   Variance    5.50    2.25    1.67   6.25  4.67

Generally the mean of the four sample means is mathematically represented as

      \= x  =  \frac{6.00+   6.75 +   6.50  +  5.25  +  6.00}{4}

=>  \= x  =  6.125

Generally the mean of the four sample variances is mathematically represented as

      \= x_v  =  \frac{5.50+ 2.25+ 1.67+ 6.25 +4.67}{4}

=>    \= x_v  =  3.71

Mina wore a pedometer on her foot for 3 hours. She recorded the number of steps she walked for each hour. The first hour she too
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Mina took 2,986 steps on the third hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the information provided, you know that Mina took a total of 9,245 steps in three hours and as you know the quantity of steps she took on the first and second hour, you can subtract the steps she took on the first and second hour from the total amount of steps to determine the steps she took on the third hour:

9,245-2,387-3,872=2,986

According to this, the answer is that Mina took 2,986 steps on the third hour.

Complete the table using the equation y = 9x + 8.
Volgvan

Answer:

Y  =  (  -1) | 8 | 17 | 26 | 35|

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 9x + 8  \\ \\  \\ x = ( - 1) \\ y = 9( - 1) + 8 \\ y =  - 9 + 8 =  - 1 \\  \\ x = 0 \\ y = 9(0) + 8 \\ y = 0 + 8 = 8 \\  \\ x = 1 \\ y = 9(1) + 8 \\ y = 9 + 8 = 17 \\  \\ x = 2 \\ y = 9(2) + 8 \\ y = 18 + 8 = 26 \\  \\ x = 3 \\ y = 9(3) + 8 \\ y = 27 + 8 = 35 \\  \\  \\  Y  =  (  - 1) | 8 | 17 | 26 | 35|
