    The following day after I arrived in Calamba, I learned that the streamer carrying Segunda and her family would not anchor in Calamba because of strong winds; it would only stop in Biñan. Without hesitation I saddled my white horse all the way to Biñan and patiently waited for her streamer to arrive. And finally I see her from a far smiling and waving her handkerchief at me. I doffed my hat and was tongue tied to say anything. Her streamer rolled on and vanished in the distance like "a swift

    a.) a population parameter
    b.) a sample statistic
    c.) any random variable

    2) Nonsampling errors are?


    a. the errors that occur because the sample size is too large in relation to the population size
    b. the errors made while collecting, recording, and tabulating data
    c. the errors that occur because an untrained person conducts the survey

    3) A sampling error is?


    a. the difference between the value of a sample statistic based on a random sample and the value of the
    corresponding population parameter
    b. the error made while collecting, recording, and tabulating data
    c. the error that occurs because the sample is too small

    Population and Sampling Distribution

    13) At Jen and Perry Ice Cream Company, the machine that fills one-pound cartons of Top Flavor ice
    cream is set to dispense 16 ounces of ice cream into every carton. However, some cartons contain
    slightly less than and some contain slightly more than 16 ounces of ice cream. The amounts of
    ice cream in all such cartons have a normal distribution with a mean of 16 ounces and a standard
    deviation of .18 ounce.

    a. Find the probability that the mean amount of ice cream in a random sample of 16 such cartons will be

    i. between 15.90 and 15.95 ounces


    ii. less than 15.95 ounces
    iii. more than 15.97 ounces

    b. What is the probability that the mean amount of ice cream in a random sample of 16 such cartons will
    be within .10 ounces of the population mean?

    c. What is the probability that the mean amount of ice cream in a random sample of 16 such cartons will
    be less than the population mean by .135 ounces or more?

    14) What is the difference between the probability distribution of a discrete random variable and that
    of a continuous random variable? Explain.
