Answer for question B) from the word bank

Pregunta 9
A population of 2 liter bottles of cola is known to have a mean fill-weight of 2.06 liters and a standard deviation of 0.02
liters.
Calculate:
H+o = ( _2.04
2.08
H± 20 = ( 2.02
2.10
H±30 = ( 2.00
2.12
(A) If the population is known
be bell-shaped, then we can conclude that between 0 and 11.1
% of the bottles will
contain less than 2 liters.
(B) If the shape of the population isunknown, and you cannot assume that it is bell-shaped, then we can conclude that
between 0 and
% of the bottles will contain less than 2 liters.

Expert Solution
Step 1

NOTE: As mentioned by the student, I have to attempt only the B part. Hence, I am solving part B) only.

B).

We know that the Empirical rule is valid only for Normal distributions, which states that with mean μ and standard deviation σ:

  • 68% of the data lies within 1 standard deviation limits, i.e, μ±σ.
  • 95% of the data lies within 2 standard deviation limits, i.e, μ±2σ.
  • 99.7% of the data lies within 3 standard deviation limits, i.e, μ±3σ.

The case of Normal distribution is used in the part A). In this case, we are told that the distribution is not bell shaped, i.e, it is NOT NORMAL.


In such a case, we will use Chebyshev's Inequality.
Chebyshev's Inequality states that the proportion f data values that lies within given number of standard deviations is obtained by P1-1k2, where P=proportion of data values to be calculated and k=Number of standard deviations provided.
