From z table output:
P(z > -1.75) = 0.96
As per the given problem:
P(X > 24) = 0.96
Hence,
= 0.457 ounces

Weights of cereal in 16 ounce boxes are normally distributed with a mean of 16 ounces...
Weights of cereal in 16 ounce boxes are normally distributed with a mean of 16 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.12 ounce. Respond to the following: a)What is the probability that a cereal box selected at random will have at least 15.95 ounces? b)What is the probability that the mean of a sample of 16 boxes will be at least 15.95 ounces? c)In a production of 10,000 boxes, how many would you expect to be below 15.95 ounces? d)The...

A company that manufactures and bottles apple juice uses a machine that automatically fills 24-ounce bottles. There is some variation, however, in the amount of liquid dispensed into the bottles. The amount dispensed has been observed to be approximately normally distributed with mean 24 ounces and standard deviation 1 ounce. Determine the proportion of bottles that will have more than 22 ounces dispensed into them. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) 0.5000 X oz You may need to use...

A cereal manufacturer has a machine that fills the boxes. Boxes are labeled “16 ounces”, so the company wants to have that much cereal in each box, but since no packaging process is perfect, there will be minor variations. If the machine is set at exactly 16 ounces and the Normal model applies, then about ½ the boxes will be underweight, making consumers unhappy and exposing the company to bad publicity and possible lawsuits. To prevent underweight boxes, the manufacturer...

5. A cereal factory’s machine is adjusted to fill boxes with a mean of 12 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.6 ounces. Assume the amount of fill is normally distributed. a. In order to ensure boxes are not inappropriately filled, they need to be between the 45 and 55 percentiles. How many ounces should be in each box to ensure they fall within the appropriate fill level?
A machine fills boxes of cereal in a factory. The average weight of cereal in a...
A machine fills boxes of cereal in a factory. The average weight of cereal in a random sample of 17 boxes is calculated to be 350 grams and the sample standard deviation is calculated to be 8 grams. Weights of cereal per box are known to follow a normal distribution. We calculate a 90% confidence interval for the true mean weight of cereal per box. The margin of error for the appropriate confidence interval is:
The mean weight of a box of cereal filled by a machine is 18.0 ounces
The mean weight of a box of cereal filled by a machine is 18.0 ounces, with a standard deviation of 0.4 ounce. If the weights of all the boxes filled by the machine are normally distributed, what percent of the boxes will weigh the following amounts? (Round your answers to two decimal places.) (a) less than 17.5 ounces (b) between 17.8 and 18.2 ounces
The amount of cereal that can be poured into a small bowl varies with a mean of 1.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.3 ounce. A large bowl holds a mean of 2.5 ounces with a standard deviation of...
The amount of cereal that can be poured into a small bowl varies with a mean of 1.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.3 ounce. A large bowl holds a mean of 2.5 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.4 ounce. A student opens a new box of cereal and pours one large and one small bowl. Suppose that the amount of cereal the manufacturer puts in the boxes is a random variable with a mean of 16.2 ounces...
A cereal box filling machine is designed to release an amount of 12 ounces of cereal...
A cereal box filling machine is designed to release an amount of 12 ounces of cereal into each box, and the machine’s manufacturer wants to know of any departure from this setting. The engineers at the factory randomly sample 100 boxes of cereal and find a sample mean of 12.25 ounces. If we know from previous research that the population is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 1.51 ounces, is there evidence that the mean amount of cereal in...

The labels on boxes of Cheesy Poofs say that the box contains 16 ounces of Cheesy Poofs, but that doesn’t guarantee that each box contains exactly 16.00 ounces. The machine that fills the boxes doesn’t always put out the exact same amount. The amount in each box is Normally distributed, and has a standard deviation is .40 ounces. To help assure that most boxes contain as much or more than the label says, the machine is set so that the...

58. Cereal A company's cereal boxes advertise that each box contains 9.65 ounces of cereal. In fact, the amount of cereal in a randomly selected box follows a Normal distribution with mean μ 9.70 ounces and standard deviation σ = 0,03 ounce. (a) What is the probability that a randomly selected box of the cereal contains less than 9.65 ounces of cereal? (b) Now take an SRS of 5 boxes. What is the probability that the mean amount of cereal...
