document.write( "Question 1182078: Seventy million pounds of trout are grown in the U.S. every year. Farm-raised trout contain an average of 32 grams of fat per pound, with a standard deviation of 8 grams of fat per pound. A random sample of 36 farm-raised trout is selected. The mean fat content for the sample is 29.7 grams per pound. Find the probability of observing a sample mean of 29.7 grams of fat per pound or less in a random sample of 36 farm-raised trout.
