Suppose samples of size 49 are drawn randomly from a population that has a mean of 300 and a standard deviation of 35. What are the values of the mean and the standard deviation of the distribution of the sample means?
mean of the sample means = mean of the population = 300
std of the sample means = 35/sqrt(49) = 5
