1. The GPAs of students at Generic University are normally distributed with a mean of 2.78 and a standard deviation of 0.34. You select a random sample of 4 students and compute their mean GPA (d) Find two values symmetric about the mean such that the probability that the sample mean falls between them is 50%. (e) What is the probability that the sample mean is above 2.50? (f) Why are we justified in assuming that the sampling distribution of the mean will be normally distributed in this problem?
