Suppose you had a population of fish whose lengths were normally distributed with a mean of 50 centimeters and a standard deviat

ion of 5 centimeters. You draw a simple random sample of size 10, record the length of each fish, and calculate the mean of the sample lengths. What do you think your sample mean would most likely be

Answer:

The sample mean would most likely be 50 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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:

The mean of the population is 50 centimers.

So, by the Central Limit Theorem, the sample mean would most likely be also 50 centimeters.

If we take the perimeter of the park as being equivalent to the distance that Anwar walks, then we can calculate the number of blocks he walks and then multiply this by the width of each block, thus:

Number of blocks walked = 1 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8
Distance walked = 8*300 = 2400 feet

(You could also draw a diagram to help present this in a visual way but it is not necessary)

Let the number of weeks to have same amount = x Then:-

1200 + 40x = 700 + 50x
1200 - 700 = 50x - 40x

10x =  500
x = 50  
answer is 50 weeks
