Question
A group of 12 analysts predict the earning per share of company X to be 1.40,1.40,1.45, 1.49, 1.37, 1.27, 1.40, 1.55, 1.40, 1.42, 1.49, and 1.71.
a. Compute the sample variance
b. Compute the sample standard deviation
c. Compute the 95 percent confidence interval on the population variance
Sample standard deviation for the number of passengers in a flight was found to be 8. 95 percent confidence limit on the population standard deviation was computed as 5.86 and 12.62 passengers with a 95 percent confidence.
a. Estimate the sample size used
b. How would the confidence interval change if the standard deviation was based on a sample of 25?
