A certain breed of pigs has weights that are normally distributed with a mean of 280 pounds and astandard deviation of 20 pounds.11. What weight (to the nearest pound) represents the 67th percentile in this group of pigs? [Hint:Find the z-score corresponding to a probability of 0.6700 and substitute it into the z-score formula.Then algebraically solve for x which will be the desired weight at the 67th percentile.]12. (10 pts) If a group of 4 pigs is selected at random, find the probabilitythat the mean weight ofthe group will be 275 pounds or less. [Hint: Compared to Problem # 9 dealing with only one pig, it isintuitively harder to select a group of 4 pigs that have a mean weight of 275 pounds or less. Thiscalls for a revised standard deviation for the group that will result in a higher z-score and a lowerprobability for this situation.]I
