x, and S1 are the sample mean and sample variance from a population with mean μ| and variance ơf. Similarly, X2 and S1 are the sample mean and sample variance from a second population with mean μ and variance σ2. Assume that these two populations are independent, and the sample sizes from each population are n,and n2, respectively. (a) Show that X1-X2 is an unbiased estimator of μ1-μ2. (b) Find the standard error of X, -X. How could you estimate...
11. A distribution of exam scores has a mean of μ = 78. a.If your score is X = 70, which standard deviation would give you a better grade: σ = 4 or σ = 8? Answer: ________________ b.If your score is X = 80, which standard deviation would give you a better grade: σ = 4 or σ = 8? Answer: ___________________ 12. For each of the following, identify the exam score that should lead to the better grade....
1. For a population with a mean of μ = 70 and a standard deviation of σ = 20, how much error would you expect between a typical sample mean (M) and the population mean for each of the following sample size? a. n=4 scores b. n=16 scores
