Answer:

μoverbar(x) = 25

σoverbar(x) = 3

Explanation:

Given That :

Population mean, μ = 25,

Population standard deviation, σ = 12,

Sample size, n = 16

The sampling distribution is approximately normal from the central. Limit theorem and hence, μoverbar(x) = μ = 25

σoverbar(x) is the standard error and is obtained thus :

σoverbar(x) = σ / sqrt(n)

σoverbar(x) = 12 / sqrt(16) = 12 /4 = 3

Following are the calculation to the [tex]\bold{\mu_{\bar{x}} \ and\ \sigma_{\bar{x}}}[/tex]:

Given:

[tex]\mu = 25\\\\\sigma = 12\\\\ n = 16[/tex]

To find:

[tex]\bold{\mu_{\bar{x}} \ and\ \sigma_{\bar{x}}}[/tex]:=?

Solution:

  • [tex]\mu=[/tex] population mean
  • [tex]\sigma =[/tex]the population's standard deviation
  • [tex]n=[/tex] size of the sample
  • [tex]\mu_{\bar{x}} =[/tex] the average of a large number of samples of size 16 whose individual means are [tex]\bar{x}[/tex]
  • [tex]\mu_{\bar{x}} = \mu = 25\\\\[/tex]
  • [tex]\sigma_{\bar{x}}[/tex]= the average standard deviation of all the different samples drawn from the population.

   [tex]\to \sigma_{\bar{x}} = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{12}{\sqrt{16}} = \frac{12}{4}= 3[/tex]

Therefore, the final value of [tex]\bold{\mu_{\bar{x}} \ and\ \sigma_{\bar{x}}}[/tex] is "25 and 3".
