Assume a population of 3, 4, and 11. Assume that samples of size n=2 are randomly selected with replacement from the population. Listed below are the nine different samples. Complete parts a through d below.

a. Find the value of the population standard deviation.

(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

b. Find the standard deviation of each of the nine samples, then summarize the sampling distribution of the standard deviations in the format of a table representing the probability distribution of the distinct standard deviation values. Use ascending order of the sample standard deviations.

c. Find the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample standard deviations.

d. Do the sample standard deviations target the value of the population standard deviation? In general, do sample standard deviations make good estimators of population standard deviations? Why or why not?

A. The sample standard deviations do not target the population standard deviation, therefore, sample standard deviations are biased estimators.

B. The sample standard deviations do target the population standard deviation, therefore, sample standard deviations are unbiased estimators.

C. The sample standard deviations do not target the population standard deviation, therefore, sample standard deviations are unbiased estimators.

D. The sample standard deviations do target the population standard deviation, therefore, sample standard deviations are biased estimators

Q2. (a) Using CAPM, solve the following: . What return does the CAPM predicts for an individual security that has a beta value of 0.5 when the expected risk free return is 8% and the expected market rate of return is 15%. Page 1 of 3 . Calculate the return on market if risk free return is 9%, the return on the security is 18.5% and the beta value is 3.7. . A stock has an expected return of 17%, a beta of 1.9 and the expected return on the market is 1 1%. What must risk free rate be?

If the probability of selecting a male is 0.45, the probability of selecting a blonde is 0.13, and the probability of selecting a blonde male is 0.09, then what is the probability that he selects a blonde if we know that he selected a male? The probability of passing a Statistics class is 0.89. If you pass the class, then the probability of getting an A in the class is 0.32. You are currently taking a Statistics class. What is the probability that you will get an A? For question 2, are \"passing\" and "getting an A\" independent events? Justify your
