The national weather service keeps records of rainfall in valleys. Records indicate that in a certain valley the annual rainfall has a mean of 95 inches and a standard deviation of 12 inches. Suppose the rainfalls are sampled during randomly picked years and x is the mean amount of rain in these years. For samples of size 36 determine the mean and standard deviation of x.

The mean is 95 and the standard deviation is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean and standard deviation .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
