(choose chapter or problem)

A candy maker produces mints that have a label weight of 20.4 grams. Assume that the distribution of the weights of these mints is N(21.37, 0.16).(a) Let X denote the weight of a single mint selected at random from the production line. Find P(X < 20.857). (b) During a particular shift, 100 mints are selected at random and weighed. Let Y equal the number of these mints that weigh less than 20.857 grams. Approximate P(Y 5). (c) Let X equal the sample mean of the 100 mints selected and weighed on a particular shift. Find P(21.31 X 21.39).
