9.7 Define the sampling distribution of the mean. 9.8 Specify three important properties of the sampling distribution of the mean. 9.9 If we took a random sample of 35 subjects from some popula tion, the associated sampling distribution of the mean would have the following properties (true or false). 9.13 Given a sample size of 36, how large does the population standard deviation have to be in order for the standard error to be 9.14 (a) A random sample of size 144 is taken from the local population of grade-school children. Each child estimates the number of hours per week spent watching TV. At this point, what can be said about the sampling distribution? 10.9 The normal range for a widely accepted measure of body size, the body mass index (BMI), ranges from 18.5 to 25. Using the mid-range BMI score of 21.75 as the null hypothesized value for the population mean, test this hypothesis at the .01 level of significance given a random sample of 30 weight-watcher participants who show a mean BMI 5 22.2 and a standard deviation of 3.1. 10.10 Let’s assume that over the years, a paper and pencil test of anxiety yields a mean score of 35 for all incoming college freshmen. We wish to deter-mine whether the scores of a random sample of 20 new freshmen, with a mean of 30 and a standard deviation of 10, can be viewed as coming from this population. Test at the .05 level of significance. 10.11 According to the California Educational Code (
