Step 1
We are given a sample of 5 scores: 4, 6, 8, 10, and y. We are also given that the mean of this sample is 6. We need to find the variance of the sample. The problem suggests finding 'y' first. Show more…

Given a sample with 5 scores: 4, 6, 8, 10, and y, and the mean of this sample is 6, what is the variance of the sample? (Hint: first find y).
Adi S.
In a population with N = 6, the values of y are 8, 3, 1, 11, 4, and 7. Calculate the sample mean ȳ for all possible simple random samples of size 2. Verify that ȳ is an unbiased estimate of Ÿ and that its variance is as given in theorem 2.2. 2.2 For the same population, calculate s% for all simple random samples of size 3 and verify that E(s%) = S%. 2.3 If random samples of size 2 are drawn with replacement from this population, show by finding all possible samples that V(ȳ) satifies the equation V(ȳ) = σ% / n = S% / n * (N - 1) / N
