The Quality Control Department employs five technicians during the day shift. Listed below is the number of times each technician instructed the production foreman to shut down the manufacturing process last week. Technician Shutdowns Technician Shutdowns
Taylor 4 Rousche 3
Hurley 3 Huang 2
Gupta 5

Required:
a. How many different samples of two technicians are possible from this population?
b. List all possible samples of two observations each and compute the mean of each sample.
c. Compare the mean of the sample means with the population mean.
d. Compare the shape of the population distribution with the shape of the distribution of the sample means.

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Technician __Shutdown

Taylor, T___4

Rousche, R _ 3

Hurley, H__ 3

Huang, Hu___2

Gupta, ___ 5

The Numbe of samples of 2 possible from the 5 technicians :

We use combination :

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

5C2 = 5!(3!)2!

5C2 = (5*4)/2 = 10

POSSIBLE COMBINATIONS :

TR, TH, THu, TG, RH, RHu, RG , HHu, HG, HuG

Sample means :

TR = (4+3)/2 = 3.5

TH = (4+3)/2 = 3.5

THu = (4+2) = 6/2 = 3

TG = (4 + 5) = 9/2 = 4.5

RH = (3+3) = 6/2 = 3

RHu = (3+2) /2 = 2.5

RG = (3 + 5) = 8/2 = 4

HHu = (3+2) = 2.5

HG = (3+5) = 8/2 = 4

HuG = (2+5) / 2 = 3.5

Mean of sample mean (3.5+3.5+3+4.5+3+2.5+4+2.5+4+3.5) / 10 = 3.4

Population mean :

(4 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 5) / 5 = 17 /5 = 3.4

Population Mean and mean of sample means are the same.

This distribution should be approximately normal.
