1 Recap…  We need to take spread into account when we give an interval for the population parameter

2 So far… Population Sample Sample statistics Population parameter What we’re trying to estimate

3 Remember our kiwis…

4 So far… Population Sample Sample statistics What is the median weights of kiwis? What we’re trying to estimate Take your sample of kiwis Dot plot Box plot Sample statistics…

5 So far… Population Sample Sample statistics Population parameter What we’re trying to estimate Median weight of kiwis is somewhere between ___ and ___

6 Samples of size ___ were reliable enough

7 The median weight of kiwis was somewhere between ___ and ___ (90% ish of our sample medians) Distribution of sample medians…

8 We don’t get to take multiple samples so this process WON’T work We need to find an informal confidence interval for the population median based ON A SINGLE SAMPLE However in real life …

9 To take into account both Sample size and spread Our informal interval needs…

10 For your sample of kiwis: Dot plot Box plot Median More kiwis…

11 Add your SAMPLE MEDIANS TO THE SHEET Then

12 Add your IQR (box) TO THE SHEET Student worksheet

13 Complete Q3 – Q5 on the worksheet Student worksheet

14 Q3: I notice that the width of the IQR for sample medians when the sample size is 30 is approximately of the width of the population IQR WIDTH 0.507 kg-ish (67 mm) WIDTH 0.095 kg-ish (11 mm) 1/5

15 Q4: I notice that the width of the IQR for sample medians when the sample size is 400 is approximately __________ of the width of the population IQR WIDTH 0.025 kg-ish (3.5 mm) WIDTH 0.507 kg-ish (67 mm) 1/20

16 Q5: Relationship between the width of the IQR for sample medians of sample size n and the population IR and the sample size…  IQR for sample medians (sample size = n) is approximately of the population IQR  When n = 400 the IQR of the sample medians is approximately ________________ of population IQR  When n = 30 the IQR of the sample medians is approximately ________________ of population IQR
