Suppose, household color TVs are replaced at an average age of μ = 9.0 years after purchase, and the (95% of data) range was from 5.8 to 12.2 years. Thus, the range was 12.2 − 5.8 = 6.4 years. Let x be the age (in years) at which a color TV is replaced. Assume that x has a distribution that is approximately normal. (a) The empirical rule indicates that for a symmetric and bell-shaped distribution, approximately 95% of the data lies within two standard deviations of the mean. Therefore, a 95% range of data values extending from μ − 2σ to μ + 2σ is often used for "commonly occurring" data values. Note that the interval from μ − 2σ to μ + 2σ is 4σ in length. This leads to a "rule of thumb" for estimating the standard deviation from a 95% range of data values. Estimating the standard deviationFor a symmetric, bell-shaped distribution, standard deviation ≈ range 4 ≈ high value − low value 4 where it is estimated that about 95% of the commonly occurring data…

Let X be a normal random variable with mean 85 and a variance of 25 (i.e., X ∼ N (85, 25)). step1: Let M = aX + b for some constants a, b not equal to 0. Write an expression for the pdf of M . step 2: Suppose that X represents an approximate distribution of the final scores in a certain math course (ignore the fact that this approximation can technically have scores that are greater than 100 or less than 0). If the teacher were to curve the scores, it means he would determine a function to apply to the scores to achieve a desired distribution (assume an affine function in this case, as in the previous part). Suppose he wants the scores to be normally distributed with mean 80 and a standard deviation of 4. What should he choose for a and b? What students would see their score lowered, and what students would see their score increased?

Which of the following statement is INCORRECT? If Y, follows the standard normal distribution and Y, follows a chis-square distribution with degrees of freedom n, then nY/Y t distribution. If X1,.., Xn is a random sample from a normal population with population mean 1 and variance 1, then (X -1) + (X - 1 (X, - 1) follows a chi-square distribution with degrees of freedom n. If X,..., Xn is a random sample from a normal distribution with population mean 0 and a known variance o, then must follow a distribution, where X denotes the sample mean and S denotes the sample standard deviation. If T follows at distribution with degrees of freedom n, then T must follow an F distribution with degrees of freedom 1 and n.
