The packaging on the light bulbs you ordered for your store says they have a mean time to burnout of 200 hours, with a standard deviation of 18 hours, but the shape of the distribution is unknown. Someone buys 36 bulbs. a) Assuming the 36 bulbs can be considered a random sample, what is the distribution of the sample mean? b) What is the probability that the average time to burnout of the 36 bulbs will be less than 195 hours? Round your answer to 4 decimal places. The probability is i
