Textbook Question

Chapter 7.1, Problem 7E

In Exercises 7.3–7.10, we have given population data for a variable. For each exercise, do the following tasks.

a. Find the mean, μ, of the variable.
b. For each of the possible sample sizes, construct a table similar to Table 7.2 on page 310 and draw a dotplot for the sampling distribution of the sample mean similar to Fig. 7.1 on page 310.
c. Construct a graph similar to Fig. 7.3 and interpret your results.
d. For each of the possible sample sizes, find the probability that the sample mean will equal the population mean.

For each of the possible sample sizes, find the probability that the sampling error made in estimating the population mean by the sample mean will be 0.5 or less (in magnitude), that is, that the absolute value of the difference between the sample mean and the population mean is at most 0.5.

7.7 Population data: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

A company found that the daily sales revenue of its flagship product follows a normal distribution with a mean of $4500 and a standard deviation of $450. The company defines a "high-sales day" that is, any day with sales exceeding $4800. please provide a step by step on how to get the answers in excel Q: What percentage of days can the company expect to have "high-sales days" or sales greater than $4800? Q: What is the sales revenue threshold for the bottom 10% of days? (please note that 10% refers to the probability/area under bell curve towards the lower tail of bell curve) Provide answers in the yellow cells
