Q1. Assume !! , … , !" are independently identical distributed random variables with

,
distribution $(&, ' # ), We construct a confidence interval for population mean, then the
length of the confidence interval for population mean would decrease as:

Q2. You are given the following random sample taken from a population that has a
normal distribution. * = 15 5

Q4. The volume in a set of wine bottles is known to follow a normal distribution with
parameters mean and variance=25. You take a sample of the bottles and measure their
volumes. How many bottles do you have to sample to have a 95% C.I. for a width 1?

Q5. One of the major oil products companies conducted a study recently to estimate the
mean gallons of gasoline purchased by customers per visit to a gas station. To do
this, a random sample of customers was selected with the following data being recorded
that shows the gallons of gas purchased.
