7. The histograms of some sampling distributions are symmetrical. T-F What would make a histogram symmetrical, and give an example of a symmetrical distribution?
8. A random sample of size 36 is to be selected from a population that has a mean μ = 50 and a standard deviation σ of 10.
Find the standard (z) score for a sample value of 40.
9. Describe what a type I and type II error would be for the following null hypothesis:
H_0: There is no difference between steam and chemical carpet cleaning methods.
