μx=enter your response here

The standard error of the sampling distribution is

σx=enter your response here

(Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Part 2

Choose the correct graph of the sampling distribution below.

0 2 -2

A normal curve is over a horizontal x overbar axis labeled from negative 2 to 2 in increments of 1 and is centered on 0. A vertical line segment extends from the horizontal axis to the curve at 0.

69.5 82.5 56.5

A normal curve is over a horizontal x overbar axis labeled from 56.5 to 82.5 in increments of 6.5 and is centered on 69.5. A vertical line segment extends from the horizontal axis to the curve at 69.5.

69.5 73.0 66.0

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
