A study on the latest fad diet claimed that the amounts of weight lost by all people on this diet had a mean of 24.224.2 pounds and a standard deviation of 7.67.6 pounds.
Step 2 of 2 :
If a sampling distribution is created using samples of the
amounts of weight lost by 5555 people on this diet, what would be
the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample
means? Round to two decimal places, if necessary.
Solution :
Given that,
mean = = 24.2
standard deviation = = 7.6
n = 55
The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean is
= / n = 7.6 / 55 = 1.02
= 1.02
