Good day, I am struggling with the following question. My grip on ordered statistics is not that great. Kindly assist. I can find the distribution of the max and min separately and nothing further than that.

A random sample is drawn from a population with mean U= 72 and standard deviation o = 6.0. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.) a. Is the sampling distribution of the sample mean with n= 17 andn= 45 normally distributed? O Yes, both the sample means will have a normal distribution. O No, both the sample means will not have a normal distribution. O No, only the sample mean with n=17 will have a normal distribution. O No, only the sample mean with n= 45 will have a normal distribution, b. Calculate the probability that the sample mean falls between 72 and 75 for n= 45.

2 This is a more general version of Problem C.1. Let Y1, Y2, ..., Y, be n pairwise uncorrelated random variables with common mean m and common variance o. Let Y denote the sample average.

The third worksheet labeled sample B is a simple random sample with replacement, with seven observations in the sample, from some population. The index i in the first column is just an integer name for each observation. The specific values x in the second column are measures of a random variable X distributed in the population. Now suppose this random variable X is known to have a Normal distribution in the sampled population. You still do not know the population mean and must estimate it from the sample, as you did earlier. BUT NOW, in this question, you know in advance that the true population standard deviation of the random variable X is 4. Compute the standard error (of the sample mean), given this new knowledge situation. i xi 1 74.2 2 72.79 3 70.35 4 74.37 5 73.34 6 78.96 7 77.99
