Answer: [tex] 495[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that if the population is normally distributed with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], then the sampling distribution of the sample mean , [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is also normally distribution with :-
Mean : [tex]\mu_{\overlien{x}}=\mu[/tex]
Given : The scores on the Critical Reading part of the SAT exam in a recent year were roughly Normal with mean [tex]\mu= 495[/tex]
Then , the mean of the average scores you get will be close to [tex] 495[/tex]
