Mid-Term Review
Remarks
This is a close-book examination. Calculation can be carried out in a calculator.
Other computational tools, such as mobile phone, are prohibited.
There are 8 questions for a total of 100 points. A formula bank is attached (from Chap. 7).

Mid-Term Review
Chapter 4A A random variablerandom variable is a variable that assumes numerical is a variable that assumes numerical values that are determined by the outcome of an experimentvalues that are determined by the outcome of an experiment.
The probability distribution of a discrete random variable is a table, graph, or formula that gives the probability associated with each possible value that the variable can assume
Properties
1. For any value x of the random variable, p(x) 0
2. The probabilities of all the events in the sample space must sum to 1, that is,

Sample mean is approximately normally distributed if:
Sample size is larger than 30 (without assuming the population also has a normal distribution);
Sample size is less than 30, and the population also has a normal distribution.
