Question

A local micro-brewery dispenses its various non-alcoholic and alcoholic products into 473 millilitre (mL)
glasses - the amount of a pint. Not all the micro-brewery’s servers are consistent when filling “one pint”
glasses with product. The amount of product filled in 473 ml glasses (there is a line on each glass indicating
when to stop filling) various from one server to the next. This server-to-server variation of the amount of
product dispensed can be modeled by the Normal probability model with a mean of 471 mL and a standard
deviation of 1.5 mL.
(a) You have ordered a “pint” of something at this micro-brewery. Compute the probability that you are
given between 470 mL and 472 mL.
(b) Compute the 90th percentile, x90. Then, interpret its meaning in the context of these data.
(c) An “overfill” occurs when the server has provided you with more than 473 mL of product. Compute
the chance that the glass of product received in part (a) was “overfilled”?
(d) You randomly pick n = 30 “pints”. Compute the chance that between 3 and 6, inclusive, will be
overfilled.
