Suppose that the number of ounces of soda put into a Pepsi can is normally distributed with μ=12.05 ounces


Suppose that the number of ounces of soda put into a Pepsi can is normally distributed with μ=12.05 ounces and σ =0.03 ounces.

  1. Legally a can must contain at least 12 ounces of soda. What fraction of cans will contain at least 12 ounces of soda?
  2. Pepsi controls the mean weight in a can by setting a timer. For what mean should the timer be set so that only 1 in 1000 cans will be underweight?
  3. Every day Pepsi produces 10,000 cans. The government inspects 10 randomly chosen cans each day. If at least two are underweight, Pepsi is fined $10,000. Given that μ=12.05 ounces and σ =0.03 ounces, what is the probability that Pepsi will be fined on a given day?
