Meredith is a general surgeon who performs surgeries such as appendectomies and laparoscopic cholecystectomies. The average number of sutures that Meredith uses to close a patient is 37, and the standard deviation is 8. The distribution of number of sutures is right skewed. Random samples of 32 are drawn from Meredith's patient population, and the number of sutures used to close each patient is noted. Use the central limit theorem to find the mean and standard error of the sampling distribution.
