... We ask, can we predict the sex of a jackal from the mandible length of a skull? We will use the linear logistic model α + β xi – x where x is the mandible length. The null hypothesis will assert that length is irrelevant, so β = 0. We will take care of the nuisance parameter a by conditioning on its ...

... 1. The first result is important since we note that if we sample from a Normal population, then the sample average is exactly normally distributed, regardless of the sample size. As a follow-up, we also know that: If the population is approx Normal, then X ≈ Normal regardless of sample size. 2. In t ...

Our expectation is that x is close to . In fact, we’ll even be able to calculate how close it’s likely to be. Now the second questi ...
