Answer 1

Answer:

• 17,750
• 1737

Step-by-step explanation:

A suitable table or calculator is needed.

One standard deviation from the mean includes 68.27% of the total, so the number of bottles in the range 20 ± 0.16 ounces will be ...

  0.6827·26,000 = 17,750 . . . . . within 20 ± 0.16

__

The number below 1.5 standard deviations below the mean is about 6.68%, so for the given sample size is expected to be ...

  0.66799·26,000 = 1737 . . . . . below 19.76

Comment on the first number

The "empirical rule" tells you that 68% of the population is within 1 standard deviation (0.16 ounces) of the mean. When the number involved is expected to be expressed to 5 significant digits, your probability value needs better accuracy than that. To 6 digits, the value is 0.682689, which gives the same "rounded to the nearest integer" value as the one shown above.
