(i) Use Random Number Generation to generate a random sample of size 1000 from anormal random variable, X, with 145X and 20X. (ii) Use the sample to computean estimate of )90( XP. (iii) Use NORMDIST to compute )90( XP. (iv) How do the values from Parts (ii) and (iii) compare?Solution. 2. (i) Use Random Number Generation to generate a random sample of size 500 from a normal random variable, X, with 110X and 15X. (ii) Use the sample to computean estimate of )125( XP. (iii) Use NORMDIST to compute )125( XP. (iv) How do the values from Parts (ii) and (iii) compare?Solution. 3. (i) Use Random Number Generation to generate a random sample of size 2000 from anormal random variable, X, with 85X and 10X. (ii) Use the sample to compute an estimate of )60( XP. (iii) Use NORMDIST to compute )60( XP. (iv) How do the values from Parts (ii) and (iii) compare?Solution. 4. (Exercise 13 in Simulating Normal Random Variables) Modify the sheet Intervals in Salary.xls so that it computes the end points of 90% confidence intervals for the mean ofX. What fraction of these intervals actually contain $88,989?Solution. 5. Let X be a normal random variable with mean 140X and 15X, and let Y be a normal random variable with mean 140Y and 25Y. (i) Use Random Number Generation to generate a random sample of size 1000 from X and to generate a random sample of size 1000 from Y. (ii) Have Excel compute a 95% confidence interval from each sample. (iii) How does the confidence interval for X compare with the confidence interval for Y?Solution. 6. Let X be a normal random variable with mean 115X and 20X, and let Y be a normal random variable with mean 115Y and 10Y. (i) Use Random Number Generation to generate a random sample of size 500 from X and to generate a random sample of size 500 from Y. (ii) Have Excel compute a 95% confidence interval from eachsample. (iii) How does the confidence interval for X compare with the confidence interval for
