Suppose people attending a party serve drinks from a bottle containing 63 ounces of a certain liquid. Suppose, furthermore, that the expected size of each drink is 2 ounces, that the standard deviation of each drink is 1/2 ounce, and that all beverages are served independently. Determine the likelihood that the bottle is not empty after you have served 36 drinks.

A nutritionist claims that the mean tuna consumption by a person in the United States is 3.2 pounds per year with a standard deviation of 0.74 pound. A random sample of 25 people in the United States shows that the mean tuna consumption by a person is 2.9 pounds per year. What is the probability that a random sample of this size has a mean tuna consumption of 2.9 pounds per year or less? Round your answer to 4 decimal places.
