Suppose you sample 2students from every classroom where a class is being held at CCNY at around 12PM and gather data on their currentGPAs. Research from CCNY says that theaverage GPA is 2.9 with a standard deviation of 0.8. Suppose this is true. What is the probability that a random sample of 16 students will have a sample mean of 2.8 or less?

a.

22%

b.

99%

c.

Cannot be solved since the sampling distributioncannot be established.

d.

None of these

e.

31%

Which of the following is true about the t-distribution? Assume a reference (random) sample of size 100 with sample mean 10 and sample standard deviation of 1 with unknown population mean and variance.

a.

None of these

b.

The t-distribution will look similar to the standard normal distribution as the sample size increases which results in the degrees of freedom increasing.

c.

The t-distribution will look similar to the normal distribution with mean 10 and standard deviation 1 as the sample size increases which results in the degrees of freedom increasing.

d.

The t-distribution will look similar to the normal distribution with mean 10 and standard deviation 1 as the sample size increases which results in the degrees of freedom decreasing.

e.

The t-distribution will look similar to the standard normal distribution as the sample size increases which results in the degrees of freedom decreasing.

a.

b.

65%

c.
