The amount of bleach a machine pours into bottles has a mean of 36 oz.with a standard deviation of 0.15 oz.Suppose we take a random sample of 36 bottles filled by this machine.The sampling distribution of the sample mean has a standard error of 0.15.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The standard error of the sampling distribution of the sample mean can be calculated as the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size. In this case, the standard error would be 0.15/√36 = 0.025. Therefore, the given standard error of 0.15 is incorrect and the answer is false.
