There are 120 students at Francis Howell North High School. Mr. Willott conducts a poll that asks 20 andomly selected students how many hours of sleep they got last night. They find that the mean amournt of leep is 6.7 hours. The population standard deviation is o = 2 hours. Can we estimate the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of means by using- 2 %3D = 0.447 hours? V20 a) No, because "hours of sleep" is not a continuous variable. b) No, because we can't be sure that the central limit theorem applies to this situation. c) No, because we don't know that the distribution of sleep hours for the population is approximately Normal. (d) No, because the sample is more than 10% of the population. (e) Yes, because all the conditions for using this formula have been met.
