Suppose the process of taking random samples of size 30 is repeated 200 time and a histogram of 200 sample means is created. Would the histogram be an approximate display of the populations distribution, the distribution of a sample or the sampling distribution om means?
A. sampling distribution of means
B. population distribution
C. distribution of a sample
Correct answer is sampling distribution of means
It is not population distribution because we are not creating histogram for population, but creating histogram for different samples.
It is not distribution of a sample because we are taking 200 samples, not a single sample
It is sampling distribution of means because we took 200 samples, each with sample size 30. So, we have 200 samples means and the histogram for the data will sampling distribution of those 200 means.
So, option A is correct
