Simulation of Central Limit Theorem http://onlinestatbook.com/simulations/CLT/clt.html *Averages are less variable than individual observations!

Central Limit Theorem When n is sufficiently large, the sampling distribution of is well approximated by a normal curve, even if the population distribution is not itself normal. (if n>30)

To clarify: A sample mean ( ) based on a large n will tend to be closer to the population mean ( ) than one based on a small n. The larger the sample size, n, the smaller the standard deviation.

Properties of a Sampling Distribution of Sample Means Shape is approximately normal since Population is normal, or Central Limit Theorem (n  30)

If a population has a mean equal to 52 and a standard deviation equal to 3.4 and n = 100 What is the mean of the sample mean? What is the standard deviation of the sample mean? Describe the shape of the sampling distribution.
