Sampling Distribution of Sample Mean

The document discusses constructing the sampling distribution of a sample mean when random simple samples of size 2 are drawn with replacement from a population. It provides the steps to find the sample mean, sample variance, standard error, and checks that the sample mean equals the population mean and that the sample variance equals the population variance divided by the sample size. The key results are that the mean of the sample is 2.5, the variance of the sample is 0.6251, and the standard error is 0.7906.

Construct the sampling distribution of a sample mean if random simple sample of size 2 are
drawn with replacement from the population. Find sample mean. Sample variance.

1.25
4 16 ∂ = 1.1180
∑x = 10 ∑x2 = 30

Step 2
Drawn sample with replacement:
Population =[1,2,3,4] Sample with replacement = (N)n
Sample =2 Sample with replacement = (4)2 =16
1st column= 16/4=4 2nd column= 4/4=1

Mean of Sample: Variance of Sample

µx̅ = ∑ x̅ f (x̅ )= 2.5 ∂2x̅ = ∑ x̅2 f (x̅) - [∑ x̅ f (x̅)]2


∂2x̅ = 6.8751 - [2.5]2
∂2x̅ = 6.8751 - 6.25 = 0.6251
Standard Error ∂x̅ = √( 6.8751 - 6.25)
∂x̅= √0.6251
∂x̅= 0.7906
