Question:

The range of values for the sample mean that fall within 1 standard error of the mean in a sampling distribution is M = 39 to M = 43. What Is the mean of the sampling distribution, and what is the standard error

a) mean = 41, standard error = 2

b) mean = 39 or 43, standard error = 2

c) mean = 41, standard error = 4

e) the mean and standard error are unknowns

Given Information:  

Standard error = 1

Range of values = 39 to 43

Required Information:  

Mean and standard error = ?

Mean is 41 and Standard error is 2

Explanation:

We know that the mean and standard error are related as

s = μ + (1)ο

s = μ - (1)ο

43 = μ + (1)ο

39 = μ - (1)ο

option (a) satisfies the above equations

43 = 41 + (1)2

43 = 43

39 = 41 - (1)2

39 = 39

Therefore, the correct option is (a)

Mean is 41 and standard error is 2

answer: 7
