Answer:
The mean is 40.35 and the standard deviation is 0.13.
Step-by-step explanation:
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a certain type of olivine assembly, the silicon dioxide (SiO2) content (in weight percent) in a randomly chosen rock has mean 40.35 and standard deviation 0.4.
Sample of 10:
By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is 40.35, and the standard deviation is
The mean is 40.35 and the standard deviation is 0.13.
