Suppose that a study of elementary school students reports that the mean age at which children begin reading is 5.9
years with a standard deviation of 0.7
years.
Step 1 of 2: If a sampling distribution is created using samples of the ages at which 67
children begin reading, what would be the mean of the sampling distribution of sample means? Round to two decimal places, if necessary.
The mean of the sampling distribution of sample means can be calculated using the formula:
Mean of sampling distribution = Population mean
Therefore, the mean of the sampling distribution of sample means would be 5.90 years.
