Download From Simulations to the Central Limit Theorem

Parameter: A number
describing a characteristic of
the population
(usually unknown)
Statistic: A number describing
a characteristic of a sample.
In Inferential Statistics we use
the value of a sample statistic
to estimate a parameter value.
We want to estimate the mean
height of MC students.
What if we get another sample, will x-bar
be the same?
What does the x-bar distribution look like?
How do we investigate the behavior of x-bar?
Graph the x-bar distribution and find its
mean and standard deviation
