The inside diameter of a randomly selected piston ring is a random variable with mean value 12
Question:
The inside diameter of a randomly selected piston ring is a random variable with mean value 12 cm and standard deviation .04 cm.
a. If X is the sample mean diameter for a random sample of n 16 rings, where is the sampling distribution of X centered, and what is the standard deviation of the X distribution?
b. Answer the questions posed in part
(a) for a sample size of n 64 rings.
c. For which of the two random samples, the one of part
(a) or the one of part (b), is X more likely to be within
.01 cm of 12 cm? Explain your reasoning.
