![**Understanding Sampling Distributions**
Suppose an x-distribution has a mean \(\mu = 8\). Consider two corresponding \(\bar{x}\) (sampling distribution of the sample mean) distributions. The first is based on samples of size \(n = 49\), and the second is based on samples of size \(n = 81\).
**(a) Calculating the Mean of the Sampling Distributions**
What is the value of the mean of each of the two \(\bar{x}\) distributions?
- For \(n = 49\), \(\mu_{\bar{x}} =\) [Enter Mean]
- For \(n = 81\), \(\mu_{\bar{x}} =\) [Enter Mean]
**(b) Probability that \(\bar{x}\) Exceeds a Certain Value**
For which \(\bar{x}\) distribution is \(P(\bar{x} > 10.00)\) smaller? Explain your answer.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 81\) because the standard deviation will be larger.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 49\) because the standard deviation will be larger.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 81\) because the standard deviation will be smaller.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 49\) because the standard deviation will be smaller.
**(c) Probability within a Range**
For which \(\bar{x}\) distribution is \(P(6.00 < \bar{x} < 10.00)\) greater? Explain your answer.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 49\) because the standard deviation will be larger.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 81\) because the standard deviation will be larger.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 49\) because the standard deviation will be smaller.
- \( \bigcirc \) The distribution with \(n = 81\) because the standard deviation will be smaller.
