DISCUSSION 3:

Constructing Confidence Intervals

• In the discussion for week 4, you rolled a pair of dice 10 times and calculated the average sum of your rolls.
• Then you did the same thing with 20 rolls.
• Use your results from the week 4 discussion for the average of 10 rolls and for the average of 20 rolls to construct a confidence interval for the true mean of the sum of a pair of dice (assume σ = 2.41).
• What do you notice about the length of the interval for the mean of 10 rolls versus the mean of 20 rolls? Did you expect this? Why or why not?
• RESULTS: In rolling the dice, I think that I was able to gain a better understanding of the central limit theroem. This theory allows normal probablity to be used. You can use a larger sample to get roughly the same results that you would get using a larger population. My initial average was about 6.5 and when I rolled 20 times it went up to 7.3.
