Insurance claims An insurance company claims that in the entire population of homeowners, the mean annual loss from fire is u = $250 with a stan- dard deviation of o = $5000. The distribution of losses is strongly right-skewed: Many policies have SO loss, but a few have large losses. Describe the shape of the sampling distribution of x for SRSS of size n = 15 from the population of homeowners. Justify your answer. Describe the shape of the sampling distribution of x for SRSS of size n = 1000 from the population of homeowners. Justify your answer,
