Consider a normal population with µ = 25 and σ = 8.0.SHOW ALL WORK
\n" ); document.write( "(A)Calculate the standard score for a value x of 22.
\n" ); document.write( "z(22) = (22-25)/8 = -3/8
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(B)Calculate the standard score for a randomly selected sample of 30
\n" ); document.write( "with xbar = 22
\n" ); document.write( "t(22) = (22-25)/[8/sqrt(30)] = -3/1.4606 = -2.0540
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(C)Explain why the standard scores of 22 are different between A and B above.
\n" ); document.write( "A based on z-distribution ; B based on t-distribution
\n" ); document.write( "A has std = 8 ; B has std = 8/sqrt(30)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Note: These differences relate to the Central Limit Theorem
\n" ); document.write( "It's also possible that your text would call for the following
\n" ); document.write( "for \"B\": z(22) = (22-25)/[8/sqrt(30)] = -2.0540
\n" ); document.write( "===================================================
