QuestionThe heights of fully grown trees of a specific species are normally distributed, with a mean of 52.5 feet and a standard deviation of 5.75 feet. Random samples of size 17 are drawn from the population. Use the central limit theorem to find the mean and standard error of the sampling distribution. Then sketch a graph of the sampling distribution.
The mean of the sampling distribution is $\mu_{\bar{x}}=$ $\square$ 7.
The standard error of the sampling distribution is $\sigma_{\bar{x}}=$ $\square$ (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Studdy Solution
To sketch a graph of the sampling distribution, plot a normal distribution curve with:
- Mean ( $\mu_{\bar{x}}$ ) at 52.5 - Standard error ( $\sigma_{\bar{x}}$ ) at 1.39
The graph should be a bell-shaped curve centered at 52.5 with a spread determined by the standard error of 1.39.
The mean of the sampling distribution is:
$\mu_{\bar{x}} = 52.5$
The standard error of the sampling distribution is:
$\sigma_{\bar{x}} = 1.39$
