Asynchronus 5 : Video summary

Sampling distribution
I discovered and comprehended the following from the video.
1. The distinction between sampling and sample distribution
• Sample Distribution: This method of data interpretation uses a single sample from a
population.
• Sampling Distribution: Several simple random samples are taken from a population, and
statistics are distributed based on those samples. Here, the Sample Mean would vary
depending on the sample.
2. Sample Mean(x) Sampling Distribution
• The distribution of all Sample Means that can be obtained from a population by repeatedly
taking random Samples of a fixed size(n) is called x. The sample mean is repeatedly calculated
to create the histogram in this video, where n=5.
• The goal of this distribution is to comprehend population behaviour and draw conclusions.
• The frequency distribution (histogram), if there is enough data, will be normally distributed.

3. Population Distribution and Sampling Distribution Comparison

Population Distribution Sampling Distribution

The entire population is taken into account. Several samples are drawn from the
population.

Each individual's characteristic is taken into The term "x" is used to denote the Standard
account when calculating the mean and error.The standardization formula is z= (X- x)
standard deviation. / x x x = The average height of the sampled
population.

Denoted by the notation x N(μ,σ) and the A histogram is expanded to include all x to
standardization formula z= (X- )/ σ find the frequency distribution.

4. Advantages of Sampling Distribution


• Convenience and effectiveness
• Assists in calculating probability.

5. Exercise: Assume that all Canadians' heights have a normal distribution with a mean of 160
cm and a standard deviation of 7 cm. What is the likelihood that 10 Canadians at random will
have an average height that is less than 157 cm?

• In accordance with the given scenario, where is 160, is 7, and n is the sample size (i.e., the
number of participants in the sample),
• Let's make a population distribution histogram. The histogram's midpoint is set at 160 with a
mean of 160, as can be seen in the diagram below.

• To determine the sampling distribution's standard deviation, As a result, the sampling


distribution and histogram can be created with intervals of 2.21.
From the set score table P(Z<-1.36)=0.0869 Hence, P(x<157)=8.69%
