In the claims department of an insurance office various quantities are computed at the end of each day’s business. On Monday, 10 claims are received for a particular class of policy. The mean claim amount is calculated to be £426 and the standard deviation to be £112. On Tuesday it is found that one of Monday’s claims for £545, was classified wrongly and it is removed from the set of 10 claims. Calculate the resulting mean and standard deviation of the reduced set of 9 claims.


APPLICATION:





an experimental study was conducted by a researcher to





determine if a new time slot has an effect on the performance





of pupils in mathematics. Fifteen randomly selected learners





participated in the study. Toward the end of the investigation, a





standardized assessment was conducted. The sample mean x̄= 75 and s=5. In standardization of the test, the mean was





65 and standard deviation was 8. Based on the evidence at





hand, is the new time slot effective? Use α = 0.05.
