The risk of an investment is measured by the variability of the changes in its value over a fixed period, such as a year. more variation from year to year means more risk. the government's securities and exchange commission wants to require mutual funds to tell investors how risky they are. a news article (new york times, april 2, 1995) says that some people think that "the proposed risk descriptions, especially one that goes bythe daunting name standard deviation" are hard to understand. explain to a friend what the standard deviation means, using the fact that the changes in a mutual fund's value over many years have a roughly normal distribution. a. the standard deviation is the distance between the first and third quartiles, so it spans half the yearly changes in the fund's value b. the standard deviation is the largest change we ever expect to see in a year c. the yearly change in the fund's value will be greater than the standard deviation half the time and less than the standard deviation half the time. d. start witht the average (mean) change in the fund's value over many years; the actual change will be within one standard deviation of that average in about 68% of all years e. start with the average (mean) change in the fund's value over many years; the actual change will be within one standard deviation of that average in about 95% of all years.

The world health organization reports that the distribution of ages at time of death in the united states has a mean u of 79.8 years and a standard deviation ơ of 15.5 years, based on death certificates. the distribution of ages at time of death is obviously left-skewed (, few people die young and most die old). researchers plan to take a random sample of 100 american death certificates. (a) what are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the mean age at death, x, for samples of 100 american death certificates? (enter your answer rounded to two decimal places.) mean: years standard deviation years (b) choose the correct explanation why the sampling distribution of is approximately normal o the sampling distribution of is approximately normal because the 100 death certificates represent a o the sampling distribution of is approximately normal because the 100 death certificates do not represent a the central limit theorem says that the sampling distribution of a mean does not have an approximately normal normal population. normal population. distribution even if the population is not norma the central limit theorem says that the sampling distribution of a mean has an approximately norm.l distribution even if the population is not normal, (as long as the sample size is large enough) scroll (c) what is the probability that the mean age at time of death in a random sample of 100 american death certificates will be less than 78 years? (enter your answer rounded to four decimal places.)
