The filling machine will always be this inconsistent, in that the amount in each box is Normally distributed, and has a standard deviation is .40 ounces. However, the average amount in each box can be adjusted. Where should the average be set to assure that 90% of the boxes sold contain at least 16.00 ounces?

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...

1. 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...

A machine fills 24-ounce (according to the label) boxes with cereal. The amount deposited into the box is normally distributed with a mean of 24.8 ounces. What does the standard deviation have to be in order for 96% of the boxes to contain 24 ounces or more?

Boxes are labeled as containing 400 g of cereal. The machine filling the boxes produces weights that are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 g. (a) If the target weight is 400 g, what is the probability that the machine produces a box with less than 375 g of cereal? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (b) Suppose a law states that no more than 10% of a manufacturer's cereal boxes can contain less than the stated weight of...

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 soda bottling plant fills cans labeled to contain 12 ounces of
soda. The filling machine varies and does not fill each can with
exactly 12 ounces. To determine if the filling machine needs
adjustment, each day the quality control manager measures the
amount of soda per can for a random sample of 50 cans. Experience
shows that its filling machines have a known population standard
deviation of 0.35 ounces.
In today's sample of 50 cans of soda, the sample...
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
