According to a 2017 survey conducted by the technology market research firm The Radicati Group, U.S. office workers receive an average of 121 e-mails per day (Entrepreneur magazine website). Assume the number of e-mails received per hour follows a Poisson distribution and that the average number of e-mails received per hour is five.
Define what is a Sampling Distribution of Sample Means and how it correlates to the Central Limit Theorem?
As the sample size (n) increases, does the sampling distribution of the sample mean stay the same, look more and more like a uniform distribution, or become more tightly clustered around the population mean?
A survey of 2310 adults in a certain large country aged 18 and older conducted by a reputable polling organization found that 401 have donated blood in the past two years. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) Obtain a point estimate for the population proportion of adults in the country aged 18 and older who have donated blood in the past two years. p=
a researcher decides to take a random sample of the population and determine the ALT levels of the population, which fall on a continuum. A bar chart would be useful in determining if the ALT levels of the population are normally distributed.
A forester wanted to survey spruce trees on one face of a mountain in order to determine the percentage of spruce trees that were infested or were attacked by a very destructive insect known as the tomentosus. The forester obtained a map of the mountain and then subdivided the area of interest into 400 square grids with each square covering an area of 100 square metres. A simple random sample of 50 squares was selected, and for each selected square, the survey team determined the total number of spruce trees and the number of such trees that were infested or had been attacked by the tomentosus. What sampling design was used for this survey? If the tomentosus is believed to be evenly distributed throughout the face of this mountain, would you recommend this sampling design? Why or why not? If the tomentosus prefers to reside in regions of the mountain face with higher temperatures and hence lower elevations, would you recommend using a different sampling design? Explain your answer…
The Los Angeles City Controller's office calculated that in 2013, the city employed 4703047030 full‑time employees and 1014210142 part‑time employees. Assume that an outside advocacy group had been lobbying the Mayor's office to convert part‑time workers into full‑time workers throughout 2014. The Controller's office makes its calculations annually. Suppose that the outside advocacy group wanted to know the proportion of city employees (excluding per‑event employees) who are full‑time employees ?p in June 2014 to gauge if their lobbying efforts had been effective. Suppose that the group surveyed a random sample of 1000 city employees (excluding per‑event employees) in June 2014 and found that 845845 were full‑time employees and 155155 were part‑time employees. If the advocacy group planned to use a one‑sample z-z-test for a proportion to test their lobbying eforts, the appropriate null hypothesis would be and the appropriate alternative hypothesis would be Assume…
A university dean is interested in determining the proportion of students who recieve some sor of financial aid. Rather than examine the records for all students, the dean randomly selects 200 students and finds that 118 of them are receiving financial aid. If the dean wanted to estimate the proportion of all students receiving financial aid to within 4% with 90% reliabilty, how many students would need to be sampled?
