Question

A population has a mean mu equals 82

Answer 1

The mean of the sampling distribution of the mean is the mean of the population from which the scores were sampled. Therefore, if a population has a mean μ then the mean of the sampling distribution μ₁ of the mean is also μ.

So μ = μ1 =82

Now let' calculate σ the standard deviation  of the sampling distribution of the mean: It is computed as follows:

σ₁ = σ/√n ==> σ₁ = 6/√n
