Let's attack this problem using the z-score concept.  The sample std. dev. here is (0.25 oz)/sqrt(40), or 0.040.  Thus, the z score representing 3.9 oz. is
        3.9 - 4.0
z = -------------- = -2.5
          0.040 

In one way or another we must find the area under the std. normal curve that lies to the left of z = -2.5.  Use a table of z-scores or a calculator with built-in statistics functions.  According to my TI-83 Plus calculator, that area is

0.006.  One way of interpreting this that with so small a standard deviation, most volumes of coffee put into the jars are very close to the mean, 4 oz.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:  see below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Write each equation in y = mx + b format where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Left side: -4 ≤ x < -1

If you continue the line through the y-axis it will pass through (0, 4) --> b = 4

The rise over run is -1 over 1 --> m = -1

y = (-1)x + (4)   -->    y = -x + 4

Right side: -1 < x < 4

The line passes through (0,0) --> b = 0.

The rise over run is -1 over 1 --> m = -1

y = (-1)x + (0)    -->    y = -x

\large\boxed{f(x)=\bigg\{\begin{array}{ll} -x+4&;-4\leq x
