Answer:
The value is [tex]\mu_{x} = 5.6 \ years[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 5.6 \ years[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 0.9 \ years[/tex]
The sample size is n = 49
Generally given that the sample size is large enough, the sampling distribution created using the samples of the ages at which 49 children begin reading is equal to the population mean
i.e
[tex]\mu_{x} = \mu[/tex]
=> [tex]\mu_{x} = 5.6 \ years[/tex]
