Suppose the amount of change IWU students carry is exponentially distributed with a mean of $0.88. Suppose that we randomly pick 25 IWU students and learn how much change they have.
What type of distribution does the population, which is the change carried by IWU students, follow? What are the mean and standard deviation of the population? (6 points)
What type of distribution does the sample mean follow? What are the mean and standard deviation of the sample mean? (6 points)
Find the probability that the average change of 25 IWU students was between $0.80 and $1.00. Graph the situation, shade in the area to be determined, and find the probability. (6 points)
Suppose we use the mean of a random sample of size n = 100 to estimate the mean of a population with σ = 30 . Use the central limit theorem to compute the probability that the error is less than 6. Express your answer as a decimal using 4 decimal places. Give the exact value on the chart. Do not round your answer.....
Suppose cattle in a large herd have a mean weight of 1428lbs and a standard deviation of 119lbs . What is the probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by less than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd? Round your answer to four decimal places.
