sampling distribution (dotplot) for the mean quiz score for a sample n = 30 of STAT101 students is shown below. It was constructed using random samples from population data. If we increased our sample size from 30 to 100, would the standard error of the sample mean be larger, smaller, or the same? Explain your answer in one or two sentences.

A researcher randomly purchases several different kits of a popular building toy. The following table shows the number of pieces in each kit in the sample. Find the mean of the data. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. Building Toy Pieces 152 37 257 342 342 37 96 288 257 101 162 200 Copy Data
The boxplot below displays the average number of jumbo marshmallows consumed in eating contests across a particular state. The higher outlier is from a professional, heavyweight contest, and the lower outliers are from children's eating contests.What effect will removing all outliers have on the mean and median of the data set? Neither the mean nor the median will change. The median will change and the mean will increase. The median will change and the mean will decrease. or The mean will remain unchanged and the median will increase.
Let's examine the mean of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 by drawing samples from these values, calculating the mean of each sample, and then considering the sampling distribution of the mean. To do this, suppose you perform an experiment in which you roll an eight-sided die two times (or equivalently, roll two eight-sided dice one time) and calculate the mean of your sample. Remember that your population is the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. The true mean (µ) of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 is , and the true standard deviation (o) is The number of possible different samples (each of size n = 2) is the number of possibilities on the first roll (8) times the number of possibilities on the second roll (also 8), or 8(8) = 64. If you collected all of these possible samples, the mean of your sampling distribution of means (µM) would equal and the standard deviation of your sampling distribution of means (that is, the standard error or ɑm) would be The following chart…

An Internet retailer would like to investigate the relationship between the amount of time in minutes a purchaser spends on its Web site and the amount of money he or she spends on an order. The table to the right shows the data from a random sample of
A sample of 5 students were asked how much money they were carrying. These were their answers: $75, $2, $5, $0, $5. Why is the median more informative than the mean? The median is higher than the mean. O The mean is skewed by the outlier $75. O The mean is higher than the median. O The mean is skewed by the outlier $0.
The General Social Survey is an annual survey given to a random selection of about 1500 adults in the United States. Among the many questions asked are "What is the highest level of education you've completed?" and "If you're employed full-time, how many hours do you spend working at your job during a typical week?" In a recent year, 1079 respondents answered both questions. The summary statistics are given in the chart below. (The sample data consist of the times, in hours per week, that were given by the respondents.) Sample Sample Sample size Groups mean variance Less than h.s.

A contributor for the local newspaper is writing an article for the weekly fitness section. To prepare for the story, she conducts a study to compare the exercise habits of people who exercise in the morning to the exercise habits of people who work out in the afternoon or evening. She selects three different health centers from which to draw her samples. The 56 people she sampled who work out in the morning have a mean of 4.4 hours of exercise each week. The 63 people surveyed who exercise in the afternoon or evening have a mean of 4.2 hours of exercise each week. Assume that the weekly exercise times have a population standard deviation of 0.8 hours for people who exercise in the morning and 0.7 hours for people who exercise in the afternoon or evening. Let Population 1 be people who exercise in the morning and Population 2 be people who exercise in the afternoon or evening. Step 1 of 2: Construct a 99% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean amounts of…
