A :
In population sample of children with mean
Ht66cm and SD 2.7 cm , Can a sample of 100
with mean ht 67cm occur easily? If you find
that probability is low P<o.01 What does it
indicates (2 1/2)
B:
Find the limit within which you would expect
the population proportion to be if you have
examined the records of all 50 children of
school and found 23 had tonsillectomy done
(2 ½)

• A;S X- =s/ ∫n= 2.7/ ∫100=0.27
• 67 is more than 66=3X0.27=66.8 cm this sample
can’t easily occur in this population p is less than
0.01 it indicates 99% children are that sample are
not drawn from same population might be higher
age group. Probability of its being taken from
same universe is less
• B;SEP= ∫pxq/n= ∫46x54/50=7.05
• 95% confidence limit of population proportion of
tonsillectomy done will be 46+/- 2x7=32-60%
