The following represents a sample with five observations: 5, 11, x, x+1, 1, Assume the sample mean is 6. In such a case, find the median for this sample. Select one: a. 5 b. 11 c. 2 d. 6

Step 1
This means that the sum of all the observations divided by the number of observations (which is 5 in this case) equals 6. We can write this as: (5 + 11 + X + X + 1) / 5 = 6 Simplifying this equation, we get: 2X + 17 = 30 2X = 13 X = 6.5 So we now know that Show more…

q7- A normally distributed population with 200 elements has a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 10. The probability that the mean of a sample of 25 elements taken from this population will be smaller than 56 is: Select one: a. 0.0166. b. 0.0228. c. 0.3708. d. 0.0394.

A sample consists of the following $n=5$ scores: 8,4,10,0,3. a. Compute the mean and standard deviation for the sample. b. Find the $z$ -score for each score in the sample. c. Transform the original sample into a new sample with a mean of $M=100$ and $s=20$
A random sample of size n = 25 is obtained from a normally distributed population with population mean μ =200 and variance σ^2 = 100. a) What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution for the sample means? b) What is the probability that the sample mean is greater than 203? c) What is the value of the sample variance such that 5% of the sample variances would be less than this value? d) What is the value of the sample variance such that 5% of the sample variances would be greater than this value?
