Chapter 10: Sampling Distributions and the Central Limit Theorem

Figure 10-17:

The Normal Distribution Area for

) in

Example 10-3

In addition, we can also use the

Sampling Distribution of the Sample

Mean

workbook to get the answer. This is shown in

Figure 10-18

. Recall

in the original problem we did not know the sampling distribution. Hence

we will not assume normality for the sampling distribution. The output in

Figure 10-18

assumes that the sampling distribution is not normal.
