The distribution of the number of siblings for students at a large high school is skewed to the right with mean 1.8 siblings and standard deviation 0.7 sibling. A random sample of 100 students from the high school will be selected, and the mean number of siblings in the sample will be calculated. Which of the following describes the sampling distribution of the sample mean for samples of size 100 ?

A

Skewed to the right with standard deviation 0.7 sibling

B

Skewed to the right with standard deviation less than 0.7 sibling

C

Skewed to the right with standard deviation greater than 0.7 sibling

D

Approximately normal with standard deviation 0.7 sibling

E

Approximately normal with standard deviation less than 0.7 sibling

The distribution of height for a certain population of women is approximately normal with mean 65 inches and standard deviation 3.5 inches. Consider two different random samples taken from the population, one of size 5 and one of size 85.

Which of the following is true about the sampling distributions of the sample mean for the two sample sizes?

Both distributions are approximately normal with mean 65 and standard deviation 3.5.

A

Both distributions are approximately normal. The mean and standard deviation for size 5 are both less than the mean and standard deviation for size 85.

B

Both distributions are approximately normal with the same mean. The standard deviation for size 5 is greater than that for size 85.

C

Only the distribution for size 85 is approximately normal. Both distributions have mean 65 and standard deviation 3.5.

D

Only the distribution for size 85 is approximately normal. The mean and standard deviation for size 5 are both less than the mean and standard deviation for size 85.

The distribution of wait times for customers at a certain department of motor vehicles in a large city is skewed to the right with mean 23 minutes and standard deviation 11 minutes. A random sample of 50 customer wait times will be selected. Let x¯W represent the sample mean wait time, in minutes. Which of the following is the best interpretation of P(x¯W>25)≈0.10 ?

For a random sample of 50 customer wait times, the probability that the total wait time will be greater than 25 minutes is approximately 0.10.

A

For a randomly selected customer from the population, the probability that the total customer wait time will be greater than 25 minutes is approximately 0.10.

B

For a randomly selected customer from the population, the probability that the sample mean customer wait time will be greater than 25 minutes is approximately 0.10.

C

For a random sample of 50 customer wait times, the probability that the sample mean customer wait time will be greater than 23 minutes is approximately 0.10.

D

For a random sample of 50 customer wait times, the probability that the sample mean customer wait time will be greater than 25 minutes is approximately 0.10.

E
