Juan makes a measurement in a chemistry laboratory and records the result in his lab report. The standard deviation of students' lab measurements is σ σ = 10 milligrams. Juan repeats the measurement 4 times and records the mean x x of his 4 measurements.

Answer:

The question is incomplete, but here is the complete part of the question; What is the standard deviation (±0.01) of Juan's mean result? (That is, if Juan kept on making 4 measurements and averaging them, what would be the standard deviation of all his x⎯⎯ 's?) How many times must Juan repeat the measurement so that the standard deviation of x⎯⎯ is 3? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Standard deviation of his measurement = 5

minimum number of measurement = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept of standard error of mean is applied here which is the approximate standard deviation of a sample distribution or in a normal distribution. Mathematically, Standard error is given as SE = s/√n, where n is the sample size.

The equation implies that the sample error increases as the sample size decreases and vice versa.

The step  y step calculation is shown below
