7.2.29-T Question Help An IQ test is designed so that the mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 19 for the population of normal adults. Find the sample size necessary to estimate the mean IQ score of statistics students such that it can be said with 99% confidence that the sample mean is within 6 IQ points of the true mean. Assume that o = 19 and determine the required sample size using technology. Then determine if this is a reasonable sample size for a real world calculation. The required sample size is.

X 6.3.10 Question Help Three randomly selected households are surveyed. The numbers of people in the households are 2, 4, and 9. Assume that samples of size n = 2 are randomly selected with replacement from the population of 2, 4, and 9. Construct a probability distribution table that describes the sampling distribution of the proportion of odd numbers when samples of sizes n= 2 are randomly selected. Does the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of odd numbers in the population? Do the sample proportions target the value of the population proportion? Does the sample proportion make a good estimator of the population proportion? Listed below are the nine possible samples. 2,2 2,4 2,9 4,2 4,4 4,9 9,2 9,4 9,9 Construct the probability distribution table. Sample Proportion Probability (Type an integer or fraction.)
