Question

Use the central limit theorem to find the mean and standard error of the mean of the indicated sampling distribution. Then sketch a graph of the sampling distribution.

The per capita consumption of red meat by people in a country in a recent year was normally distributed, with a mean of 116 pounds and a standard deviation of

38.3. pounds. Random samples of size 20 are drawn from this population and the mean of each sample is determined.

μx=____

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.
