The amount of coffee that people drink per day is normally distributed with a mean of 16 ounces and a standard deviation of 6 ounces. 15 randomly selected people are surveyed. Round all answers to 5 decimal places where possible.

For part d), is the assumption that the distribution is normal necessary? NoYes
Find the IQR for the average of 15 coffee drinkers.
Q1 =  ounces
Q3 =  ounces
IQR:  ounces

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.
