Is N the sample or population mean?
N is neither the sample or population mean. The letter N represents the population size while the small case letter n represents sample size. The symbol of sample mean is x̄ ,while the symbol for population mean is µ.
Does the accuracy of a sample in representing the characteristics of the population from which it was drawn always increase with the size of the sample?
yes the size is 4444
Why do smaller populations need larger sample sizes?
They do not. Population size does not affect the sample size. The variability of the characteristic that you are trying to measure and the required accuracy will determine the appropriate sample size.
If the sample mean is 10 the hypothesized population mean is 9 and the population standard deviation is 4 compute the test value needed for the z test?
n = sample sizen1 = sample 1 sizen2 = sample 2 size= sample meanμ0 = hypothesized population meanμ1 = population 1 meanμ2 = population 2 meanσ = population standard deviationσ2 = population variance
What does the Central Limit Theorem say about the traditional sample size that separates a large sample size from a small sample size?
The Central Limit Theorem states that the sampling distribution of the sample means approaches a normal distribution as the sample size gets larger — no matter what the shape of the population distribution. This fact holds especially true for sample sizes over 30.
