SOLUTION: A sample of n = 4 scores is obtained from a population with m = 70 and s = 8. If the sample mean corresponds to a z-score of 2.00, then what is the value of the sample mean?

Question 658155: A sample of n = 4 scores is obtained from a population with m = 70 and s = 8. If the sample mean corresponds to a z-score of 2.00, then what is the value of the sample mean? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A sample of n = 4 scores is obtained from a population with m = 70 and s = 8. If the sample mean corresponds to a z-score of 2.00, then what is the value of the sample mean?
-------------------
The std of the sample means is 8/sqrt(4) = 4
---------------------------------------------
The mean of the sample means is the same as the mean of the population.
z(sample mean) = (sample mean - 70)/4
----
2 = (sample mean - 70)/4
---
sample mean = 8+70 = 78
