Can you please tell me how I would do this type ofproblem? A random sample is obtained from a normal population with amean of 60 and a of 8. Which of the following outcomes ismore likely, explain A) a sample mena greater than m=86 for a sample of n=4scores or b) a sample mean greater than m=84 for a sample of n=16 what formula would I use?

Explanation / Answer

the law of large numbers states that as you get more and moresamples, the samples you have will more closely approximae the trueunderlying probability. translation: it's possible that 4 samples would havea mean of 86, but it is way way way less likely that 16 scoreswould hav ea mean of 84
