Coal is carried from a mine to a power plant in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic car loader is programmed to load each car with 75 tons of coal. The weight of the actual amount of coal that is loaded into the cars follows a normal distribution with a mean of 75 tons and a standard deviation of 0.8 ton. Suppose 20 hopper cars are randomly selected. 1. Describe the sampling distribution (shape, center, and variability) of the sample mean weight of the coal in the randomly selected hopper cars. 2. Calculate the probability that the mean weight of the coal in the randomly selected hopper cars is less than 74.5 tons.
