A company produces packets of soap powder labeled "Giant Size 32 Ounces." The actual weight of soap powder in such a box has a Normal distribution with a mean of 33 oz and a standard deviation of 0.7 oz. To avoid having dissatisfied customers, the company says a box of soap is considered underweight if it weighs less than 32 oz. To avoid losing money, it labels the top 5% (the heaviest 5%) overweight.
Reference: Ref 3-5

How heavy does a box have to be for it to be labeled overweight?
A. 31.60 oz
B. 31.85 oz
C. 34.15 oz
D. 34.40 oz

C. 34.15 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

How heavy does a box have to be for it to be labeled overweight?

Top 5%, so X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95.

So X when Z = 1.645.

So the correct answer is:

C. 34.15 oz

he sells x mount because thats eqivilqant to the maz and then divided into quarters

step-by-step explanation:

gmt is 4 hrs ahead of edt so just add four hours to 1: 14: 20 (minutes and seconds stay the same)

gmt is 5: 14: 20

hope this !
