Geologists recorded the duration (in seconds) of over 500 recent eruptions of the Old Faithful geyser in Yellowstone National Park. Here's a histogram showing the distribution of their data:

Suppose that we were to take random samples of 30 eruptions from this population and calculate į as the
sample mean duration of the eruptions in each sample.
Which graph shows the most reasonable approximation of the sampling distribution of ?
