<span>11.2 Florida voters. Florida played a key role in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections. Voter
registration records in August 2010 show that 41% of Florida voters are registered as Democrats
and 36% as Republicans. (Most of the others did not choose a party.) To test a random digit
dialing device that you plan to use to poll voters for the 2010 Senate elections, you use it to call
250 randomly chosen residential telephones in Florida. Of the registered voters contacted, 34%
are registered Democrats. Is each of the boldface numbers a parameter or a statistic?
Answer
41 % of registered voters are Democrats: parameter
36% of registered voters are Republicans: parameter
34% of voters contacted are Democrats: statistic
11.7 Generating a sampling distribution. Let’s illustrate the idea of a sampling distribution in
the case of a very small sample from a very small population. The population is the scores of 10
students on an exam:
The parameter of interest is the mean score ÎĽ in this population. The sample is an SRS of size n =
4 drawn from the population. Because the students are labeled 0 to 9, a single random digit from
Table B chooses one student for the sample.
(a) Find the mean of the 10 scores in the population. This is the population mean ÎĽ.
(b) Use the first digits in row 116 of Table B to draw an SRS of size 4 from this population.
What are the four scores in your sample? What is their mean ? This statistic is an estimate of
ÎĽ.
(c) Repeat this process 9 more times, using the first digits in rows 117 to 125 of Table B. Make a
histogram of the 10 values of . You are constructing the sampling distribution of . Is the
center of your histogram close to ÎĽ?
Answer
(a) ÎĽ = 694/10 = 69.4.
(b) The table below shows the results for line 116. Note that we need to choose 5 digits because
the digit 4 appears twice.
(c) The results for the other lines are in the table; the histogram is shown after the table.</span>

Lyra Latin for lyre, from Greek is a small constellation. It is one of 48 listed by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy, and is one of the 88 constellations recognized by the International Astronomical Union. Lyra was often represented on star maps as a vulture or an eagle carrying a lyre, and hence sometimes referred to as Aquila Cadens or Vultur Cadens. Beginning at the north, Lyra is bordered by Draco, Hercules, Vulpecula, and Cygnus. Lyra is visible from the northern hemisphere from spring through autumn, and nearly overhead, in temperate latitudes, during the summer months. From the southern hemisphere, it is visible low in the northern sky during the winter months.
Vega, Lyra's brightest star is one of the brightest stars in the night sky, and forms a corner of the famed Summer Triangle asterism. Beta Lyrae is the prototype of a class of stars known as Beta Lyrae variables. These binary stars are so close to each other that they become egg-shaped and material flows from one to the other. Epsilon Lyrae, known informally as the Double Double, is a complex multiple star system. Lyra also hosts the Ring Nebula, the second-discovered and best-known planetary nebula.
