Why is the z-score good for comparison of different data?
It is always symmetric measure
Most of the normalized data lies within -3 and 3
The mean is always 0
It is a unit free measure
The standard deviation is always one
The sampling distribution of the sample mean is the distribution of the sample means from all possible samples given size
True
False
For a given sample size, the higher the confidence level, the
Smaller the confidence interval width
Greater the confidence interval width
None of the above
A sampling distribution describes the distribution of
Either a parameter or a statistic
Neither a parameter nor a statistic
A statistic
A parameter
