A rаndоm sаmple оf size 100 is drаwn frоm an exponential distribution with parameter=8. See page 195 for the definition of the exponential distribution. Find the value of x such that the sample mean is smaller than x with a probability of 12.3%. What you can get is an approximate answer based on some methods we learned in class.
