America's Richest. Explain what the dotplots in part (c) of exercise 7.17-7.22 illustrate about the impact of increasing sample size on sampling error.
Population data:
Part (a): Find the mean, , of the variable.
Part (b): For each of the possible sample sizes, construct a table similar to Table on the page and draw a dotplot for the sampling for the sampling distribution of the sample mean similar to Fig on page .
Part (c): Construct a graph similar to Fig and interpret your results.
Part (d): For each of the possible sample sizes, find the probability that the sample mean will equal the population mean.
Part (e): For each of the possible sample sizes, find the probability that the sampling error made in estimating the population mean by the sample mean will be or less, that is, that the absolute value of the difference between the sample mean and the population mean is at most .

Menopause in Mexico. In the article "Age at Menopause in Puebla. Mexico" (Human Biology, Vol. 75, No, 2, Pp. 205-206), authors L. Sievert and S. Hautaniemi compared the age of menopause for different populations. Menopause, the last menstrual period, is a universal phenomenon among females. According to the article, the mean age of menopause, surgical or natural, in Puebla, Mexico is 44.8 years with a standard deviation of 5.87 years. Let denote the mean age of menopause for a sample of females in Puebla, Mexico.
