The distribution of the number of loaves of bread sold per week by a large bakery over the past 5 years has a mean of 7,750 and a standard deviation of 145 loaves. Suppose a random sample of n = 40 weeks has been selected. What is the approximate probability that the mean number of loaves sold in the sampled weeks exceeds 7,895 loaves?
 
  What will be an ideal response?
