STAT 2040 Chapter Notes - Chapter 7: Sampling Distribution, Standard Deviation, Sample Size Determination
Document Summary
Is the probability distribution of that statistic if sample mean. Value of the statistic that we see in a single valve sampled from that statistic. "s sampling distribution all statistics have sampling distributions. Mean mean ( ne ) , standard deviation ( ox ) I be the sample mean of these n independent observations. Nf the mean of the sampling distribution of. Is equal to the mean of the distribution from which we are sampling ) . ox. Std deviation of the distribution from which we are sampling , divided by the square root of the sample size. Nn has the std normal distribution z= io relating to a single observation. It is well known that fast food tends to be high in sodium. The online nutrition information at a famous fast food chain states that one of their burgers contains 980 mg of sodium. there is of course some variability in the amount of sodium in burgers of this type.
