a List all the possible samples of size 2 that can be drawn from the population with replacement.

b. Compute the mean of the sampling distribution of the means

e. Construct the probability histogram of overline x with replacements when n = 2

B.

b. Compute the mean of the sampling distribution of the means.

Answer 1

a$\mu =(1+3+4)/3=2.7$

b.

$D=\frac{\sum(x-\mu)^2}{n}=\frac{(2.89+0.09+1.69)}{3}=1.56$

c.

$\sigma=\sqrt{D}=1.25$

a.

m(1,3)=(1+3)/2=2

m(1,4)=(1+4)/2=2.5

m(3,4)=(3+4)/2=3.5

m(1,1)=(1+1)/2=1

m(3,3)=(3+3)/2=3

m(4,4)=(4+4)/2=4

Frequency

F(2)=F(2.5)=F(3.5)=F(1)=F(3)=F(4)=1

Probability

P(2)=P(2.5)=P(3.5)=P(1)=P(3)=P(4)=1/6

$E(x)=\sum P(x)x=1/6(2.5+3.5+2+1+3+4)=2.67$

$\sigma_x=\sum P(x)x^2-(\sum P(x)x)^2=1/6(6.25+12.25+4+1+9+16)-7.13=0.95$

$D_x=(\sigma_x)^2=0.91$
