Question

A soft drink machine outputs a mean of 27 ounces per cup. The machine's output is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 3 ounces. What is the probability of filling a cup between 22 and 29 ounces? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
