Solve the following problem. Show your complete solution. 2. Joe, a DOH COVID-19 tracker, found out that the number of infected persons of COVID-19 in seven low-risk provinces of the country are 1, 9, 2, 12, 8, 7, and 10. Suppose that 5 provinces are drawn as sample. a.) What is the mean (?), variance (?2) and standard deviation of the population (σ)? b.) How many different samples of size n =5 can be drawn from the population? List them with their corresponding mean. c.) Construct the sampling distribution of the sample mean.

A variable of a population has a mean of μ=100 and a standard deviation of σ=35 a. The sampling distribution of the sample mean for samples of size 49 is approximately normally distributed with mean and standard deviation . b. For part (a) to be true, what assumption did you make about the distribution of the variable under consideration?A. No assumption was made.B. Normal distribution.C. Uniform distribution. c. Is the statement in part (a) still true if the sample size is 16 instead of 49? Why or why not?A. Yes, the sampling distribution of the sample mean is always normal.B. No, the sampling distribution of the sample mean is never normal for sample size less than 30.C. No. Because the distribution of the variable under consideration is not specified, a sample size of at least 30 is needed for part (a) to be true.
