Question 1153704: Suppose certain coins have weights that are normally distributed with a mean of 5.661 g and a standard deviation of 0.057 g. A vending machine is configured to accept those coins with weights between 5.551 g and 5.771 g.
According to the certain limit theorem, the distribution of sample means x will have a mean given by u_x=u and a standard deviation given by o_x=o/sqrt n.
What is the mean of the distribution of sample means x? u_x=?

The mean of the sampling distribution is 5.661 gm, the mean of the original distribution. The SD will change, not the mean.
