... The average gasoline price of one of the major oil companies has been $1.00 per gallon. Because of shortages in production of crude oil, it is believed that there has been a significant increase in the average price. In order to test this belief, we randomly selected a sample of 36 of the company’s ...

This is a large enough sample size to use the Central Limit Theorem for x-bar. Hence x-bar is distributed approximately normal with mean 48 and ...

Then the product is a quadratic function of x: P(x) " x(S ! x) " !x2 # Sx. By completing the square, this function can be written as P(x) " !(x ! S/2)2 # S2/4. Thus t ...

German tank problem
In the statistical theory of estimation, the problem of estimating the maximum of a discrete uniform distribution from sampling without replacement is known in English as the German tank problem, due to its application in World War II to the estimation of the number of German tanks.The analyses illustrate the difference between frequentist inference and Bayesian inference.Estimating the population maximum based on a single sample yields divergent results, while the estimation based on multiple samples is an instructive practical estimation question whose answer is simple but not obvious.
