The amount of soda in a half-liter bottle follows a normal distribution. Assume μ = 500 ml and σ = 10 ml. A government auditor will fine the company if a random sample of 5 bottles has a sample mean under 490 ml. Find the probability the company will be fined.

Respuesta :

The probability that the company will be fined is 0.1587.

How to illustrate the probability?

From the information given, it was assumed that μ = 500 ml and σ = 10 ml.

Also, the random sample of 5 bottles has a sample mean under 490 ml.

Here, the probability will be:

= P(x < 490)

= P[(z < (490 - 500)/10]

= P (z < -10/10)

= P(z < -1)

Looking at this under the z table, the probability will be 0.1587

The probability is 0.1587.
