Answer:

\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

In order to satisfy this distribution we need that each observation on this case comes from a normal distribution, because since the sample size is not large enough we can't apply the central limit theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have that the sample size is n =6

The sample man is defined as :

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And we want a normal distribution for the sample mean

\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

In order to satisfy this distribution we need that each observation on this case comes from a normal distribution, because since the sample size is not large enough we can't apply the central limit theorem.

So for this case we need to satisfy the following condition:

X_i \sim N(\mu , \sigma), i=1,2,...,n

Because if we find the parameters we got:

E(\bar X) =\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n E(X_i) = \frac{n\mu}{n}=\mu

Var(\bar X)= \frac{1}{n^2} \sum_{i=1}^n Var(X_i) = \frac{n\sigma^2}{n^2}= \frac{\sigma^2}{n}

And the deviation would be:

Sd (\bar X) = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

And we satisfy the condition:

\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})
