The Central Limit Theorem states that if samples of size thirty or higher are drawn from any population with a mean and standard deviation, then the sampling distribution of sample means approximates a normal distribution and the larger the sample size, the closer the result is to ____________________. (MM4D1) a) the true population mean b) the true sample standard deviation c) the true sample size. d) the true population standard deviation. Oct 14, 2013

1.) The z-value corresponding to a number below the mean is _____________________________. 2.) In a particular study, teenagers were polled on the average number of hours per week they work. A 95% confidence level was found to be (15.8, 21.2 ). Interpret the finding. (MA3D2) (Choose the best statement.) a) We are 95% confident that the true population mean of the number of hours worked by a teenager per week is found somewhere between 15.8 hours and 21.2 hours per week. b) We are confident that 95% of teenagers work between 15.8 and 21.2 hours per week. c) We are 95 % confident that the average number of teenagers that work per week is between 15.8 and 21.2 teenagers.
