STT. Exam 3 Flashcards
SD formula for 7.2:
sigma/square root of n
z-score formula for 7.2:
x-bar - mu/ sigma over the square root of n
Central Limit Theorem (CLT):
the larger the population/sample size, the smaller the spread and the more the graph line represents a bell-curve shape, getting closer to normal distribution.
MOE, “m”:
margin of error
p-hat +or- z-star x square root p-hat (1-p-hat) over n
if sigma/standard deviation is NOT known, use:
the t-star formula
how to find standard error:
sigma/square root of n
sample size for p (p-hat) point estimate:
MOE:
C.I.:
sample size for mean (x-bar) CASE 1 (when SD is known)
point estimate:
MOE:
C.I.:
if no information is provided for a proportion, p-hat =
0.5
sample size for x-bar CASE 2 (when SD is unknown)
point estimate:
MOE:
C.I.:
when finding sample size, use:
inference proportion app
calculating test statistic:
z-score of p-hat
