A population has a standard deviation of 18 on average how much difference should exist for a random sample of nine scores
We want to estimate mean of a distribution by taking i.i.d. measurements, and computing their sample mean. Suppose we might be able to improve the precision of the measurements by refining the experiments, meaning we might be able to reduce the variance of the measurements (up to a point). Assuming we want to estimate the mean by conducting exactly 100 experiments, with an error of at most 1 unit and 99% certainty, how low should the variance be (approximately)?
A random sample is obtained from a normal population with a mean of μ=76 and a standard deviation of σ=20. The sample mean is M=84. Is this a representative sample mean or an extreme value for a sample of n=4 scores? Is this a representative sample mean or an extreme value for a sample of n=25 scores?
A sample of n = 16 scores is obtained from a population with μ = 70 and σ = 20. If the sample mean is M = 80, what is the z -score for the sample mean?
Which of the following samples would have the largest standard error of the mean? It's not possible to tell n = 32 scores from a population with σ = 10 n = 89 scores from a population with σ = 20 n = 88 scores from a population with σ = 10 n =18 scores from a population with σ = 20

A random sample of n1 = 49 measurements from a population with population standard deviation ?1 = 3 had a sample mean of x1 = 9. An independent random sample of n2 = 64 measurements from a second population with population standard deviation ?2 = 4 had a sample mean of x2 = 11. Test the claim that the population means are different. Use level of significance 0.01.
