Central Limit Theorem

If random samples of size n are


drawn from a population, then as n
becomes larger, the sampling distribution of
the mean approaches the normal
distribution, regardless of the shape of the
population distribution.
Things to Remember
The distribution of the sample mean tends
toward the normal distribution as the
sample size increases, regardless of the
distribution from which we are sampling.
The sample mean can be considered
approximately normally distributed if the
sample size is at least 30 (n≥ 30).

If the sample size is sufficiently large, the


Central Limit Theorem can be used.
