4) The caffeine content of a cup of coffee in the cafeteria is a normally distributed random variable with μ = 130 mg and σ = 30 mg. a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen cup of coffee will have more than 130 mg? b) Less than 100 mg? c) Between 90 mg and 150 mg? d) If the cup of coffee was the strongest 5% in caffeine content (hint: think about whether this would be above or below the mean), how many mgs of caffeine would it contain? e) If the cup of coffee was the weakest 10% in caffeine content (hint: think about whether this would be above or below the mean), how many mgs of caffeine would it contain?

A coffee machine fills a cup automatically with a volume of coffee normally distributed with expectation 2.2dl and standard deviation 0.3dl. The cups used can take a volume of coffee with expectation value 2.5 dl and standard deviation 0.45 dl. The volume of the coffee machine drops and the volume of a cup is independent. What is the probability of it accidentally overflowing with a cup?

A coffee machine dispenses normally distributed amounts of coffee with a mean of 12 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.2 ounce. If a sample of 9 cups is selected, find the probability that the mean of the sample will be between 11.9 ounces and 12.1 ounces. Find the probability if the sample is just 1 cup.

A coffee shop claims that its fresh-brewed drinks have a mean caffeine content of 80 milligrams per 5 ounces. A city health agency believes that the coffee shop’s fresh- brewed drinks have higher caffeine content. To test this claim the health agency takes a random sample of 100 five-ounce servings and found the average mean caffeine content of the sample was 87 milligrams with standard deviation of 25 milligrams. Does this provide enough evidence at the 1% significance level to...
