Monthly incomes of employees at a particular
company have a mean of $5954. The distribution of sample
means for samples of size 70 is normal with a mean of $5954
and a standard deviation of $259. Suppose you take a sample
of size 70 employees from the company and find that their
mean monthly income is $5747. How many standard
deviations is the sample mean from the mean of the sampling
distribution?
A. 0.8 standard deviations above the mean

B. 0.8 standard deviations below the mean
C. 7.3 standard deviations below the mean
D. 207 standard deviations below the mean

number of scoops used to make 10 cups of coffee (x).
Identify the probable cause of the correlation.
A.
The variation in the x variable is a direct
cause of the variation in
the y variable.
B. There is no correlation between the
variables.
C. The correlation is due to a common
underlying cause.

D. The correlation between the variables is
coincidental.
