Answer the questions below in Excel, with one question on a separate spreadsheet.

1. In determining automobile mileage ratings, it was found that the mpg in the city for a certain model is normally distributed, with a mean of 30 mpg and a standard deviation of 1.7 mpg. Suppose that the car manufacturer samples 5 cars from its assembly line and tests them for mileage ratings. a. What is the distribution of the mean mpg for the sample? b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be greater than 31 mpg? c. What is the probability that the sample mean be less than 29.5 mpg? 2. A popular soft drink is sold in 2-litre (2,000 milliliter) bottles. Because of variation in the filling process, bottles have a mean of 2,000 milliliter and a standard deviation of 18, normally distributed. a. If the manufacturer samples 100 bottles, what is the probability that the mean is less than 1,995 milliliters? b. What mean overfill or more will occur only 10% of the time for the sample of 100 bottles? 3. (STRETCH) A bank sampled its customers to determine the proportion of customers who use their debit card at least once each month. A sample of 50 customers found that only 12 use their debit card monthly. Find 95% and 99% confidence intervals for the proportion of customers who use their debit card monthly. Use the appropriate formula and verify your result using the Confidence Intervals workbook

Answer the questions below in Excel, with one question on a separate spreadsheet.
1. In determining
automobile mileage ratings, it was found that the mpg in the city for a certain model is normally distributed, with a mean of 30 mpg and a standard deviation of 1.7 mpg. Suppose that the car manufacturer samples 5 cars from its assembly line and tests them for mileage ratings. a. What is the distribution of the mean mpg for the sample? b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be greater than 31 mpg? c. What is the probability that the sample mean be less than 29.5 mpg?
Solution : a) mpg ~ N(30mpg, 1.7mpg)
The above distribution for mpg has been defined with mean : and standard deviation : , n=5 (sample size).
Mean mpg : ~ N(
The value of for is defined as :
Thus the distribution of mean mpg for the sample is: ~ N(6...
