A population of nomally-distributed measurements has a mean u = 2.850 and standard deviation o = 0.020. A total of 40 measurements were taken in 10 samples of size n=4. A) What is the mean i of the sample means. B) What is the standard deviation s, of the sample means? C) Find the 3 standard deviation spread (or range) of measurements. D) Find the 3 standard deviation spread (or range) of sample means. E) If the parent measurements were not normally-distributed, would you expect the distribution of sample means to be normally distributed? Why or why not.

Calculate the average fall time and standard deviation using the data above. Average - 1.5s Stdev- 1.85s Use the average fall time and one of the kinematic equations to determine the height of the building. Add the standard deviation from step 1 to the average fall time from step 2. This represents a “maximum fall time.” Use this time to calculate the “maximum” height of the building.
Five of your classmates measured the diagonal length of the blackboard. Classmate A measured it as 2.54 m; classmate B as 2.46 m; classmate C as 2.65 m; classmate D as 2.55 m; and classmate E as 2.39m. Find the variance and standard deviation of the measurements.

A work measurement analyst at the Dorben Company took 10 observations of a high-production job. He rated the performance of each cycle and then calculated the average normal time for each item. The item with the largest dispersion had a mean of 0.30 minutes and a standard deviation of 0.03 minutes. If it is desired to have sample data within ±5% of the actual data, how many observations should the time study analyst take of this operation?
