Question

Carol is having a hard time understanding the central limit theorem, so she decides to do her own experiment using the class data survey collected at the beginning of class on the number of hours a student takes during her Spring 2019 BUSI 2305 course. The data file has a total number of 54 students where the average is 10.8 with a standard deviation of 3.15. She sets out to collect the mean on 8 samples of 6 students. Based on this what are the total possible samples that could occur based on the population

Answer 1

Answer:

25827165

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question that we have here

the total population = 54 students

the sample size = 6 students

So given this information carol has to pick the total samples from the 54 students that we have here

the total ways that she has to do this

= 54 combination 6

= 54C6

= $\frac{54!}{(54-6)!6!}$

= 25827165

this is the total number of possible samples that could occur given the total population of 54 students.
