Question 453775: The mean value of the amount of beverage injected into the bottles in a whiskey-bottling operation is known to be normally distributed with an average value of 750 milliliters (ml) and a standard deviation of 10 ml. What is the probability that you might randomly select a sample that lies between 745 ml and 748 ml?

The mean value of the amount of beverage injected into the bottles in a whiskey-bottling operation is known to be normally distributed with an average value of 750 milliliters (ml) and a standard deviation of 10 ml. What is the probability that you might randomly select a sample that lies between 745 ml and 748 ml?
--------------------
z(745)=(745-750)/10 = -1/2
z(748) = (748-750)/10 = -1/5
----
P(745< x <748) = P(-1/2 < z < -1/5) = 0.1122
