The sample size needs to be increased by 10% so we can apply the Central Limit Theorem. c.) The distribution of sample means has a binomial distribution. d.) The distribution of sample means is approximately normal.

Which of the following are conditions that must be met in order for the distribution of sample means to be approximately normal? (Central Limit Theorem) Select all correct responses. A. The sample size must be sufficiently large (n ≥ 30). B. The standard deviation must be at least 30. C. The mean must be at least 30. D. The corresponding population is normal. E. The corresponding population is uniform. F. The sample size must be sufficiently small (n < 30).

Which of the following is true regarding the Central Limit Theorem (CLT)? a. If your sample size is n = 30 exactly, then you are guaranteed to have an approximately normal sampling distribution of the sample mean. b. As the sample size n increases, the data distribution should become approximately normal. c. The Central Limit Theorem states that the sampling distribution of the sample mean should always have the same shape as the population distribution. d. none of the above

Which of the following is the best reason that the sample maximum is not used as an estimator for the population maximum? (A) The sample maximum is biased. (B) The sampling distribution of the sample maximum is not binomial. (C) The sampling distribution of the sample maximum is not normal. (D) The sampling distribution of the sample maximum has too large a standard deviation. (E) The sample mean plus three sample standard deviations gives the best estimate for the population maximum.
