.) A population of values has a normal distribution with μ=27.5 and σ=71.5. You intend to draw a random sample of size n=180.

What is the mean of the distribution of sample means?
μ¯x=

What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means?
(Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.)
σ¯x=

Respuesta :

Answer:  a) 27.5, b) 5.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

[tex]\mu =27.5\\\\\sigma =71.5[/tex]

and n = 180

We need to calculate the sample mean and sample standard deviation.

So, the mean of the distribution of sample means is

[tex]\mu = \mu_x=27.5[/tex]

The standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is

[tex]s=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{71.5}{\sqrt{180}}=5.329=5.33[/tex]

Hence, a) 27.5, b) 5.33.
