Question 2

The central limit theorem conceptualizes the estimation of a normal distribution

through the mean of the distribution sample, as the sample size increases up to

30 or more, which adequately holds and asserts the central limit theorem.

Question 6

a. Above 92

µ = 88

σ = 12

n = 36

P ( X >92 )=P ( X−μ> 92−88 )

¿P

P ( Z >2 ) =0.023

b. Above 87

µ = 88
 2

σ = 12

n = 36

P ( X >87 )=P ( X−μ> 87−88 )

¿P

P ( Z >−0.5 )=0. 309

c. Below 87

µ = 88

σ = 12

n = 36

P ( X <87 )=P ( X−μ< 87−88 )

¿P

P ( Z ←0.5 ) =0. 692

Question 8

a. X < 61, n = 53
 3

µ = 62

σ = 15

n = 53

P ( X <61 ) =P ( X−μ<61−62 )

¿P
( X−μ 61−62

P ( Z >−0.14 )=0.444

b. X > 59, n = 36

µ = 62

σ = 15

n = 36

P ( X >59 ) =P ( X >59−62 )

Question 12

µ = 83

σ = 13

n = 36

C.I = 90%

σ 13
Standard error = = =2.167
√ N √ 36

Z-score for 90% C.I, = 1.645

C . I =μ ± ( Z∗σ )

¿ ( Z∗σ )=( 1.645∗2.167 )

Question 2

Directional hypothesis specifically measures either, the positivity or the

negativity of two variables while the non-directional hypothesis compares how

two variables are related.

Question 4

a) Non-directional Hypothesis

H 0 : x=μ=30
 5

H a : x ≠ μ ≠30

b) Directional Hypothesis Test

H 0 ; x ≥ μ ≥30

H 1 : x> μ x <30

Question 8

a) α = 0.010 (S/NS)

b) α = 0.099 (NS)

c) α = 0.020 (S)

d) α = 0.001 (SS)
