Boxes of maraconi are filled by machine and the net weight of a box has a normal distribution with mean 10oz and standard deviation 0.7oz
If 25 boxes are selected at random, what is the probability that the average of their weights is greater than 10.35oz?
-------------------------
The distribution of means of samples of size 25 has a mean of 10 oz
and a standard deviation of 0.7/sqrt(25) = 0.7/5 = 0.14
--------------
z(10.35) = (10.35-10)/0.14 = 2.5
P(z>2.5) = 0.006
So, Prob(a sample of size 25 has a mean > 10.35) = 0.006
