- Χ = amount of change students carry

- length of time for an individual to complete IRS form 1040, in hours.
- mean length of time for a sample of 36 taxpayers to complete IRS form 1040, in hours.

- Yes. I would be surprised, because the probability is almost 0.
- No. I would not be totally surprised because the probability is 0.2312

- True. The mean of a sampling distribution of the means is approximately the mean of the data distribution.
- True. According to the Central Limit Theorem, the larger the sample, the closer the sampling distribution of the means becomes normal.
- The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the means will decrease making it approximately the same as the standard deviation of X as the sample size increases.

- X = the yearly income of someone in a third world country
- the average salary from samples of 1,000 residents of a third world country
- X–– ∼ N(2000, 80001000√)(2000, 80001000)
- Very wide differences in data values can have averages smaller than standard deviations.
- The distribution of the sample mean will have higher probabilities closer to the population mean.
P(2000 < X–– < 2100) = 0.1537
P(2100 < X–– < 2200) = 0.1317
