Calculate the standard error of the mean.

Q.2 A random sample of 50 items has a standard deviation of 35. Calculate the
standard error of the mean.

Q.3 A random sample of 50 items has a variance of 64. Calculate the standard
error of the mean.

Q.4 A random sample of 50 were taken from a population with a variance of


32.5.Calculate the standard error of the mean.

Q.5 A random sample of 50 items has been taken and the mean measured. The
standard deviation of the sample is 3.16. Calculated the standard error of the
mean.

Q.6 Draw all possible samples of size of size 2 from the population 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
Without replacement. Find sample mean for each sample and show that
μ x́ =μ
i.e. mean of sample mean is equal to the population mean.

Q.7 What is the general procedure of testing the hypothesis about population
mean?

Q.8 A transport manager asserts that the mean journey time is 14 hours a day. A
random sample of 64 journeys showed a mean of 13 hours and 20 minutes
with a standard deviation of 3 hours.
Test this assertion at the 5% significance level.

Q.9 A random sample of size 36 is taken from a normal population with known
variance σ 2=25. Ifthe mean of the sample is x́ =42.6, test the null hypothesis
μ=45 against the alternative hypothesis μ<45 with ∝=0.05
Table value Z=1.65

Q.10 The heights of college male students are known to be normally distributed
with a mean of 67.39 inches and σ =¿ 1.30inches. A random sample of 400
students showed a mean height of 67.47 inches. Using a 0.05 level of
significance level, test the hypothesis H 0: μ=67.39 against the alternative
H0: μ>67.39
