A) 8.7 and 1.94.
B) 36 and 1.94.
C) 36 and 1.86.
D) 36 and 8.
Sampling Distribution
Describes the distribution of a statistic (like the mean or variance) based on random samples from a larger population.
Standard Deviation
A measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values, indicating how much the values in the dataset deviate from the mean.
