What are the two population parameters that specify the location and dispersion for the
sampling distribution of the mean?
The American Auto Association reports the mean price per gallon of regular gasoline is
$3.10, with a population standard deviation of $0.20. Assume a random sample of 16
gasoline stations is selected and their mean cost for regular gasoline is computed. What
