Question 5 2 pts Which of the following statements about the sampling distribution of the sample mean is NOT true? The mean of the sampling distribution of the sample mean is equal to the population mean $\mu$. The sampling distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal whenever the sample size is sufficiently large (n > 30) The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean is equal to the population standard deviation $\sigma$ The sampling distribution of the sample mean is generated by repeatedly taking samples of size n and computing the sample means < Previous Next

Which of the following statements about the sampling distribution is incorrect? The sampling distribution is approximately normal whenever the sample size is sufficiently large (n ≥ 30). The sampling distribution is generated by repeatedly taking samples of size n and computing the sample means. The mean of the sampling distribution is equal to µ. All of the above statements are correct for sampling distributions.
