Cans of pepsir are labeled to indicate that they contain 16oz. The population standard deviation is .15oz. A random sample of 49 cans is selected
Find the mean and standard deviations for this smpling distrubutiono
B. Find the probability that a sample of 49 cans will have a sample mean greater than 16.15oz
Solution :
Given that ,
mean = 
 = 16
standard deviation = 
 = 0.15
n = 49
sampling distribution of sample mean =
= 16
sampling distribution of standard deviation =
= 
 / 
n = 0.15 / 
49 = 0.0214
P(
 >16.15 ) = 1 - P(
<16.15 )
= 1 - P[(
- 
) / 
< (16.15 -16) / 0.0214 ]
= 1 - P(z <7.14 )
Using z table
= 1 - 1
= 0
probability= 0
