QUESTION:
In estimating a population mean \(\mu\) using a sample mean \(\bar{x}\), why is it likely that \(\bar{x}\ \neq\ \mu\)? Construct a cause-and-effect diagram for the effect \(\bar{x}\ \neq\ \mu\).
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
We need to construct cause-and-effect diagram for the effect. Where in estimating
the population mean , the sample mean is used. It is not possible always that the sample mean is exactly equal to the population mean.
