OR, or PROBABILITY. If she says:
STATISTICS, everyone will stand up

PROBABILITY, everyone will stretch their
ACTIVITY
A population consists
of 2, 3, and 5. List all
possible samples of
size 2 which can be
drawn with
replacement from this
population and
compute the mean of
each sample. One
possible sample is
Learning Objectives
identify sampling distributions of statistics (sample mean)
find the mean and variance of the sampling
ind the mean and variance of the sampling distribution of the sample mean
distribution of the sample mean
solve problems involving sampling distributions of
the sample mean
Lesson Proper
Sampling Distribution is the
probability distribution that describes
the probability for each mean of all the
samples with the same sample size n.
Example
Considering a population consists of 2, 3, and
5. List all possible samples of size 2 which can
be drawn with replacement from this
population and compute the mean of each
sample. Lastly, find the mean of the sampling
distribution of means and the mean of the
