The marks on this test add up to 50. (10 Marks) I. If the statement is true circle T otherwise circle F. A. The mean of the standard normal distribution is 0. @ F Bl The mean of the Poisson distribution equals its median. T ® C. The normal approximation can not be used for some hinomials. T F D. The confidence level for a 90% Confidence Interval is 90%. F E. The sampling distribution of medians is approximately normal. T Q F. The width of a confidence interval equals >’< t SE, T © G. The sample standard deviation s is a parameter. T (F) H. We should correct for continuity when we compute the probability in the normal distribution, T @ I. If 52 = (72 then s2 is an biased estimator of oz. T @ I. If we increase the sample size n then the Width of the confidence interval decreases. F [10 marks] H.
