STATISTICS & PROBABILITY

Long Quiz # 2
Teacher: Marie Mahogany B. Dalman

I. Direction: Encircle the letter of the correct answer. (1 point each)

1. The two numbers that make up the lower and upper ends of the confidence interval are referred to as
______________________.
a. Margin of error b. Confidence limits c. Confidence levels d. z value
2. The ________________ states that the sampling distribution of the sample means approaches a normal
distribution as the sample size gets larger.
a. Interval estimate c. Student’s distribution
b. Degree of freedom d. Central Limit Theorem
3. A _____________ is a number that describes the data from a population.
a. Parameter b. Sample c. Standard deviation d. Cluster
4. A ________________ is a collection of all the means or averages from all possible samples of the same size
taken from a population.
a. Random variable c. Sampling distribution
b. Probability histogram d. Distribution variable
5. The ___________________ is calculated by adding all the data points and dividing the total by the number of
data points.
a. Probability b. Mean c. Sample size d. Confidence interval

II. Computation: Calculate what is asked.

1. Using the data below, perform the following tasks:

23 26 29 32 35

a. Construct a sampling distribution of the mean when n = 3. (10 points)

b. Draw a histogram for the sample means. (4 points)

2. Suppose that during any hour in a large department store, the average number of shoppers is 448, with a
standard deviation of 21 shoppers. What is the probability that a random sample of 49 different shopping
hours will yield a sample mean between 441 and 446 shoppers? (2 points) Interpret your answer. (1 point)

3. Suppose a car rental firm wants to estimate the average number of kilometers traveled per day by each of its
cars rented in a certain city. A random sample of 20 cars rented in that city reveals that the sample mean travel
distance per day is 85.5 kilometers, with a population standard deviation of 19.3 kilometers. Compute a 99%
confidence interval to estimate µ. (2 points) Interpret your answer. (1 point)
