4. your sample provides some information about the mean length of the segments in one random sample of size 10, but that sample is only one among all the different possible random
samples. let’s look at other random samples and see how the means from those samples compare to the mean segment length from your random sample.
record the mean segment length for your random sample on a post-it note, and post the note in the appropriate place on the number line your teacher set up.
a. jonah looked at the plot and said, "wow. our means really varied." what do you think he meant?
b. describe the simulated sampling distribution of mean segment lengths for samples of size 10.
c. how did your first estimate (from exercise 1) compare to your sample mean from the random sample? how did it compare to the means in the simulated distribution of the sample
means from the class?
