A large corporation employs 21780 individuals. The average income of all employees is $80877, with a standard deviation of $16560 and is skewed to the right. Consider this to be the population distribution. You are given a data set consisting of the incomes of 180 randomly selected employees. • The population mean is p = • The population standard deviation is o = • The sample size is n = • Since the sample size is relatively large, the Central Limit Theorem tells us that the sample averages should have a sampling distribution that is (O skewed to the rightO approximately normal). The sampling distribution of the sample means is centered at the (O populationO sample) mean. • The sampling distribution has a standard deviation of SD = Round to two decimal places.

Alex wants to find out: if the standard deviation of the mean for the sampling distribution of random samples of size 256 from a large or infinite population is 9, how large must the sample size become if the standard deviation is to be reduced to 2.7 (or even smaller)?
The mean weekly earnings of all female workers in a state is $710 and the mean weekly earnings of all male workers in the same state is $760. The standard deviations of the weekly earnings are $86 for the females and $106 for the males. Suppose we take one sample of 316 female workers and another sample of 329 male workers from this state. 1.1. By hand, what is the mean of the sampling distribution of the difference between the mean weekly earnings for females and males? 1.2. By hand, what is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the difference between the mean weekly earnings for females and males, rounded to two decimal places?
Use the Central Limit Theorem to find the mean and standard error of the mean of the sampling distribution. Then sketch a graph of the sampling distribution. The mean price of photo printers on a website is $234 with a standard deviation of $57. Random samples of size 26 are drawn from this population and the mean of each sample is determined. The mean of the distribution of sample means is
Find the mean and standard error of the mean of the sampling distribution. Then sketch a graph of the sampling distribution. The prices of photo printers on a website are normally distributed with a mean of $238 and a standard deviation of $67. Random samples of size 33 are drawn from this population and the mean of each sample is determined.
The weights of 1,000 men in a certain town follow a normal distribution with a mean of 150 pounds and a standard deviation of 15 pounds. From the data, we can conclude that the number of men weighing more than 165 pounds is about , and the number of men weighing less than 135 pounds is about .
Assume that ﬁnal exam scores in a given course are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 75 and a standard deviation of 10 points. In a class of 200 students, how many would you expect to fail the exam (i.e., score less than 60) (note: scores can only be approximately normally distributed, because the minimum score is 0, but this should not alter the answer, given how large the mean is relative to the standard deviation).
A population has mean of 120 and standard deviation of 10. A sample of size 5015 is taken from the population. What is the mean and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean?
Suppose you have the population 50 and 80 and that their corresponding z-scores are -1 and -2, respectively. Is it possible to determine the populations mean and standard deviation?
A standardized exam's scores are normally distributed. In a recent year, the mean test score was 1539 and the standard deviation was 315. The test scores of four students selected at random are 1940, 1290, 2240, and 1420. Find the z-scores that correspond to each value and determine whether any of the values are unusual. The z-score for 1940 is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The Z-score for 1290 is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The Z-score for 2240 is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The Z-score for 1420 is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Which values, if any, are unusual? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box within your choice. OA. The unusual value(s) is/are. CD (Use a comma to separate answers as needed.) OB. None of the values are unusual.

Use the Central Limit Theorem to find the mean and standard error of the mean of the sampling distribution. Then sketch a graph of the sampling distribution. The mean price of photo printers on a website is $227 with a standard deviation of $69. Random samples of size 31 are drawn from this population and the mean of each sample is determined. The mean of the distribution of sample means is nothing.
If we meet these conditions, the sampling distribution of the mean will have a normal shape and ... The mean of the sampling distribution will be u, (i.e., the same as the population mean) and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be (that's the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size). In the AP Stats Guy video, he talks about the number of text messages his students send during class. Suppose the average number of text messages his students send during class is u = 30 text messages. If we take samples of say, n = 36 students at a time, we would expect the mean of the sampling distribution we create to be the same as the population mean, 30 text messages. If we can further say that standard deviation of the number of text messages is 12 text messages, by how much would we expect the sample means to vary? (hint, use the formula above) text messages
