IN a population of Siberian flying squirrels in western Finland, assume that the number of pups born ot each female over her lifetime has mean=3.66 and standard deviation =2.9598. The distribution of squirrel pups born in non-normal because it takes only whole, non-negative values. Deteremine the mean number of pups x, such that 70% of all random samples of such squirrels of size n=40, the mean number of pups born to females in the sample is less than x.

You need to use software or a table of z-critical values. You may find some software manuals useful. Give your answer to at least two decimal places.

x=
