Question

The amount of corn chips dispensed into a 48-ounce bag by the dispensing machine has been identified as possessing a normal distribution with a mean of 48.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.2 ounce. What proportion of the 48 ounce bags contain more than the advertised 48 ounces of chips

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
