We first start with some summary statistics for our data. Below, I’ve recorded the mean and standard deviation for our variables of interest - education years and weekly earnings.
| Variable | Mean | Standard Deviation |
| earnwke | 848.42 | 568.29 |
| educyears | 14.25 | 3.00 |
Interpret the mean and calculate the standard error of both variables.

Now that we have some familiarity with random variables, we are going to start a discussion about one of the most important random variables in statistics—the sample mean, x . Now why is x a random variable? Because its value depends on the outcome of selecting a random sample. Therefore, we can talk about its distribution, its mean or expected value, and its standard deviation. The following activity is designed to introduce the concept of the sampling distribution for x...

Question1: Data is collected for a continuous quantitative random variable. Summary statistics including measures of center and measures of spread/variation are calculated on the original raw data. Assume that the original raw data is then ‘centered’ (i.e. the mean for the variable is subtracted from each raw score so that the new mean of the ‘centered’ data is at 0). Show that the sample variance and, thus, the sample standard deviation is the same for the ‘centered’ data as it...

We would like to estimate the difference μA−μBμA−μB in the true mean pH levels in two lakes. Samples of water specimens are collected from each lake and the pH level of each specimen is measured. Some summary statistics are shown below: Sample Size Mean Standard Deviation Lake A 5 7.4 0.12 Lake B 4 7.1 0.28 Assume that pH levels are known to follow normal distributions for both lakes. The margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for μA−μBμA−μB...

The mean age when smokers first start is 13 years old with a population standard deviation of 2 years. A researcher thinks that the smoking age has significantly changed since the invention of ENDS—electronic nicotine delivery systems. A survey of smokers of this generation was done to see if the mean age has changed. The sample of 30 smokers found that their mean starting age was 12.2 years old. Do the data support the claim at the 5% significance level?...

6. In an investigation of environmental causes of disease, data were collected on the annual mortality rate (deaths per 100000) for males in 61 large towns in England and Wales. In addition, the water hardness was recorded as the calcium concentration (parts per million, ppm) in the drinking water.
