Question

Suppose heights of seasonal pine saplings have an unknown distribution with mean 291 and standard deviation 14 millimeters. A sample of size n=55 is randomly taken from the population and the mean is taken. Using the Central Limit Theorem for Means, what is the standard deviation for the sample mean distribution?

Answer 1

1.89

Explanation:

The center al limit theorem for means states that the standard deviation of the normal distribution of sample means is equal to the original distribution’s standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size. the original standard deviation is 14 and the sample size is 55.
