Question

4:32 PM webassign.net l T-Mobile LTE Consider an x distribution with standard deviation 12. (a) If specifications for a research project require the standard error of the corresponding x distribution to be 4, how large does the sample size need to be? n= (b) If specifications for a research project require the standard error of the corresponding x distribution to be 1, how large does the sample size need to be? n= Need Help? Suppose x has a distribution with = 20 and = 15. (a) If a random sample of size n = 49 is drawn, find , and P(20 s 22). (Round to two decimal places and the probability to four decimal places.) x (b) If a random sample of size n-73 is drawn, find , and P(20 x 22). (Round to two decimal places and the probability to four decimal places.) 20 sxs22)- (c) Why should you expect the probability of part (b) to be higher than that of part (a)? (Hint: Consider the standard deviations in parts (a) and The standard deviation of part (b)ispart (a) because of the Gana-D sample size. Therefore, the distribution about is Em+D Suppose an x distribution has mean = 7. Consider two corresponding distributions, the first based on samples of size n 49 and the second based

Explanation / Answer

Q1.

a.

i don't see a confidence level mentioned in the question and in default consider the interval as 95%

Compute Sample Size  

n = (Z a/2 * S.D / ME ) ^2

Z/2 at 0.05% LOS is = 1.96 ( From Standard Normal Table )

Standard Deviation ( S.D) = 12

ME =4

n = ( 1.96*12/4) ^2

= (23.52/4 ) ^2

= 34.57 ~ 35

b.

Compute Sample Size  

n = (Z a/2 * S.D / ME ) ^2

Z/2 at 0.05% LOS is = 1.96 ( From Standard Normal Table )

Standard Deviation ( S.D) = 12

ME =1

n = ( 1.96*12/1) ^2

= (23.52/1 ) ^2

= 553.19 ~ 554

Q2.

a.

the PDF of normal distribution is = 1/ * 2 * e ^ -(x-u)^2/ 2^2

standard normal distribution is a normal distribution with a,

mean of 0,

standard deviation of 1

equation of the normal curve is ( Z )= x - u / sd/sqrt(n) ~ N(0,1)

mean of the sampling distribution ( x ) = 20

standard Deviation ( sd )= 15/ Sqrt ( 49 ) =2.1429

sample size (n) = 49

BETWEEN THEM

To find P(a <= Z <=b) = F(b) - F(a)

P(X < 20) = (20-20)/15/ Sqrt ( 49 )

= 0/2.14286

= 0

= P ( Z <0) From Standard Normal Table

= 0.5

P(X < 22) = (22-20)/15/ Sqrt ( 49 )

= 2/2.14286 = 0.93333

= P ( Z <0.93333) From Standard Normal Table

= 0.82468

P(20 < X < 22) = 0.82468-0.5 = 0.32468

b.

the PDF of normal distribution is = 1/ * 2 * e ^ -(x-u)^2/ 2^2

standard normal distribution is a normal distribution with a,

mean of 0,

standard deviation of 1

equation of the normal curve is ( Z )= x - u / sd/sqrt(n) ~ N(0,1)

mean of the sampling distribution ( x ) = 20

standard Deviation ( sd )= 15/ Sqrt ( 73 ) =1.7556

sample size (n) = 73

BETWEEN THEM

To find P(a <= Z <=b) = F(b) - F(a)

P(X < 20) = (20-20)/15/ Sqrt ( 73 )

= 0/1.75562

= 0

= P ( Z <0) From Standard Normal Table

= 0.5

P(X < 22) = (22-20)/15/ Sqrt ( 73 )

= 2/1.75562 = 1.1392

= P ( Z <1.1392) From Standard Normal Table

= 0.87269

P(20 < X < 22) = 0.87269-0.5 = 0.37269
