Answer:

σ = 0.5102

Step-by-step explanation:

If

Y = volume filled,  

µ = mean

It is a normal distribution

It follows that

0.95 = P (|Y − µ| < 1) = P (|Z| <  1 / σ)

so that

1 / σ = 1.96 ⇒  σ = (1 / 1.96)

⇒  σ = 0.5102.

Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

The sorted data set is ...

  1 2 3 3 5 7 8 9

The median is the average of the middle two numbers: (3+5)/2 = 4.

Replacing one of the 3s with a 1 makes the data set be ...

  1 1 2 3 5 7 8 9

The average of the middle two numbers is (3+5)/2 = 4.

The median increases by 4 - 4 = 0.
