Questions 1. Emissions of nitrogen oxides, which are the major constituents of
smog, can be modeled using a normal distribution. Let x denote the amount of
this pollutant emitted by a randomly selected vehicle (in parts per billion,
emission level). The distribution of x can be described by a normal
distribution with an average emission value of 1.6 and standard deviation of
0.4.
a. What percentage of vehicles have a minimum emission level of
2 ?
b. Suppose that the EPA wants to offer some sort of incentive to
get the worst polluters off the road. What emission levels constitute the worst
10% of the vehicles?
Questions 2. Consider sampling from a skewed population. As the sample size, n,
increases, some characteristics of the sampling distribution of ?change. Does
an increasing sample size cause changes in the characteristics of the sampling
distribution shown below? If so, specifically how does the sampling
distribution change? Explain in all characteristics in a, b, c and d.
a. The mean of the sampling distribution of ?
b. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of ?
c. The shape of the sampling distribution of ?
d. How are the quantities, ? and jQuery22403033703612973939_1601416804148 , related?
Questions 3. The distribution of the number of children for families in the
United States has mean 0.9 and standard deviation 1.1. Suppose a television
network selects a random sample of 1000 families in the United States for a
survey on TV viewing habits.
a. Describe (as shape, center and spread) the sampling
distribution of the possible values of the average number of children per
family.
b. What average numbers of children are reasonably likely in the
sample?
c. What is the probability that the average number of children
per family in the sample will be 0.8 or less?
d. What is the probability that the average number of children
per family in the sample will be between 0.8 and 1.0?
Questions 4. The principal at Wonderful Students High School has been asked to
provide the average number of classes taken by the students at WSHS. Since the
computer system is down, he takes his alphabetized list of students, randomly
selects 50 students, determines the number of classes each of the 50 selected
students is taking, and calculates ?= 5.4 He then reports to the PTA
"Since I took a large random sample, the population mean number of classes
taken by the students at WSHS is 5.4." Describe two paragraphs that explains why his statement is not correct.
