Question

Your last submission pos 88 dep 16027263 is used for your score. In 1940 the average size of a U.S. farm was 174 acres. Let's say that the standard deviation was 56 acres. Suppose we randomly survey 45 farmers from 1940 Part (a) In words, define the random variable X O the number of US farms O the number of animals on a US farm the number of acres of a us farm O the number of square feet of a US farm Correct The random variable of interest is the size of a US farm in acres. Part (b) In words, define the random variable X O the average number of animals on a U.S. farm the average number of acres of a farm in the sample of 45 farmers O the average number of square feet of a farm in the sample of 45 farmers O the average number of farms in each state in the United States Correct The random variable of interest is the size of a farm, in acres, O Type here to search

Explanation / Answer

here std error of mean =std deviation/|(n)1/2 =8.35

variance =(8.35)2 =69.69

hence distribution of Xbar =N (174 ;69.69 ) (Note if 69.69 will not work try with 8.35 as in some place they takeSD)

for middle 50%^ lies at z=-/+0.6745

hence smaller value =mean -z*Std error =174-0.6745*8.35=168.37

larger value =179.63
