Answer:

A. The larger the sample size the better.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this question:

We have to look at the standard error, which is:

s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

This means that an increase in the sample size reduces the standard error, and thus, the larger the sample size the better, and the correct answer is given by option a.

Find P 20 of the following arithmetic sequence: 206, 212, 218, 224....
Yanka [14]

Answer:

p_{20} = 1.25528

P₀ = 206 and difference d = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given that the arithmetic sequence

                 206,212,218,224,.....

P₀ = 206 and difference d = 212-206 = 6

The n^{th} term of the sequence

   t_{n} = ar^{n-1}

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

The n^{th} term of the sequence

   P_{n} = ar^{n-1}

Put n=20

P_{20} = 206 ( 6) ^{20-1}

p_{20} = 1.25528

Vesna [10]
The answer is X = 11 - 3. This is because to calculate the original value of how many books Isabella had, you have to take away the amount purchased from the overall total amount. Therefore, the equation is x = 11-3
