The number of coyotes observed in a day on a field trip possesses a distribution with a mean of 2.3 coyotes per day with a variance of 2 coyotes per day. A random sample of 100 days was observed, and the mean number of coyotes for the sample was calculated. Describe the sampling distribution of the sample mean. approximately normal with mean

Answer:

approximate normal with mean is 2.3 and the variance is 0.2

Explanation:

Given that

The mean is 2.3 coyotes per day

The variance is 2 coyotes per day

The random sample is 100 days

We need to describe the sample mean and approximate normal with mean

So,

= 2 ÷ √100

= 0.2

So approximate normal with mean is 2.3 and the variance is 0.2

The same would be considered and relevant
