A candy maker produces mints whose weight follows a normal
distribution with mean
21:37g and standard deviation 0:4g. Suppose 15 mints are selected
at random. Let Y be
the number of mints among them that weigh less than 20:857g. Then,
P(Y 2) = 0:816.

Suppose that a candy company makes a candy bar whose weight is supposed to be 50 grams, but in fact, the weight varies from bar to bar according to a normal distribution with mean μ = 50 grams and standard deviation σ = 2 grams. If the company sells the candy bars in packs of 4 bars, what can we say about the likelihood that the average weight of the bars in a randomly selected pack is 4 or more grams lighter than advertised?

A factory produces pistons whose diameters follow a normal distribution with a mean of 50 mm and a standard deviation of 0.01 mm. For a piston to serve, its diameter must be between 49.98 and 50.02 mm. If the diameter is less than 49.98 mm it is rejected; if it is greater than 50.02 mm, it is reprocessed once and the new diameter follows a normal distribution of an average of 49.99 mm, a standard deviation of 0.01 mm. I....
