a) How does the mean of any sampling mean distribution compare to the population mean?
b) Explain what happens to the spread of the sample mean distribution as the sample size increases based on the results observed in this lab.
a) How does the mean of any sampling mean distribution compare to the population mean?
The expected value of sampling mean is equal to the population mean
b) Explain what happens to the spread of the sample mean distribution as the sample size increases based on the results observed in this lab.
The spread or the standard deviation of the sample mean decreases as the sample size increase
