Answer: Answer:The solution to the given system of equations is (2.8,0.1)
Step-by-step explanation: I got it correct on the Unit Test
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.
