Random samples of size 36 are taken from an infinite population whose mean is 300 and standard deviation is 60. The mean and standard deviation of the sample mean (X-bar), respectively, are:

According to the authors of your textbook, if the population proportion is 0.10, the Normal distribution will provide a good approximation for the sampling distribution of as long as:

A recent study showed that 45% of smartphone users in the US are using iPhones.  If the study is correct, what is the sampling error in the proportion of iPhone users in the given random sample of responses below?    iPhone  iPhone  Other  Other  iPhone  iPhone  Other  iPhone  iPhone  Other   

The following graph summarizes data collected on annual rainfall in two cities for the past 150 years. Which of the following conclusions can be made from this graph?  

A company makes windows for use in homes and commercial buildings. The standards for glass thickness call for the glass to average 0.425 inch with a standard deviation equal to 0.045 inch. Suppose a random sample of 100 windows is taken.  What is the probability that the sample average will be within (plus or minus) 0.01 inch of the standard average? Round your answer to 2 decimal places

  Ho: p = 0.15  H1: p ≠ 0.15  n = 100  α = 0.05  Sample proportion = 0.20     What is the p-value? (Round to 2 decimal places)

An ultra-pasteurization process requires that cans of nutritional drinks be heated to 138 degrees Celsius.  If the temperature of the cans achieved is Normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.5 degrees Celsius, what must the mean (µ) temperature for the process be in order to ensure that 99% of all cans are properly heated to 138 degrees Celsius?  (round to 2 decimal places)

Other factors being equal, among the choices below, a confidence interval will be narrowest when:

If all possible samples of size n are drawn from an infinite population with a mean of 15 and a standard deviation of 5, then the standard deviation of the sample mean equals 1.0 only for samples of size:
