customers, what should the amount be above which a customer would
receive a free gift?
2) In a sample of 100 customers, what are the number of customers whose
expenditure is between 420 £ and 485 £?
3) What is a probability of selecting a customer whose expenditure is differ
than the population mean expenditure by at most 50 £?
4) In a sample of 49 customers, what are the number of customers whose
mean expenditure is at least 410 £?
5) What is the probability that the expenditure of the first customer exceeds
