Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neither statement A nor statement B is correct. The standard error and the margin of error are not directly related to each other in a way that would cause one to increase as the other decreases. Additionally, the center of a sampling distribution depends on the population mean and the size of the sampling distribution, not just the size of the samples being taken. Therefore, neither statement A nor B is correct, and the correct answer is D.
