Phyllis, a college business student wants to study how many students in her class study for less than 20 hours per week. Past data reveals that the hours college students study per week has a mean of 29 with standard deviation 9 hours. The normal distribution for the population is shown by the dotted black line.

She plans to take a random sample of 36 such college students and will calculate the mean hours studying to compare to the known hours studying. Compute the the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means for a sample of size 36. Round your answers to the nearest tenth.

Show your answer by moving the two draggable points to build the sampling distribution.
