- Q3.3 Normal, but why? A meal package for use at the space station is to be prepared by combining three separate components: protein, fruit/vegetable, and grains. Each of the components is to be randomly selected. Summary values for the caloric content for each of the components are given in the table. Component Protein (P) Fruit/vegetable (F) Grain (G) Mean (calories) 120 55 84 Stdv (calories) 6.4 Save Answer 1.0 3.6 Assume that the distributions of caloric content for each of the components are approximately normally distributed. Since the meal package consists of protein, fruit/vegetable, and grains, the total caloric content of a meal package is the random variable T, where T = P + F + G. Briefly explain why it is appropriate to say that T is approximately normally distributed.
