The standard deviation of.alt=”f$ar{X},f$ “> is usually called the
A.standard error of the sample
B.randomized standard error
C.standard error of the mean
D.standard error of the population
True/false Questions: Decide whether the following statements are true or false. (3p)
a. A normal distribution will usually have outliers.
b. A z-score represents the number of standard deviations above or below the mean.
c. The mean of the sampling distribution of the means is equal to the mean of the population from which the values were sampled.
Consider a population proportion p = 0.20.
a. What are the expected value and the standard error for the sampling distribution of the sample proportion with n = 20 and n = 58?
Note: Round the standard error to 4 decimal places.
Answer is complete and correct.

0.20
0.0894
0.0525
b. Can you conclude that the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normally distributed for both sample
sizes?
Yes, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is normally distributed for both sample sizes.
No, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is not normally distributed for either sample size.
No, only the sample proportion with n = 20 will have a normal distribution.
No, only the sample proportion with n = 58 will have a normal distribution.
c. If the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is normally distributed with n = 20, then calculate the probability that the
sample proportion is between 0.18 and 0.20.…
