Essay

Consumer products are required by law to contain at least as much as the amount printed on the package.

Assume that the standard deviation of the packaging equipment yields a bag weight standard deviation of 0.2 ounces. Explain what average bag weight must be used to achieve at least 97.5 percent of the bags having 10 or more ounces in the bag. Assume the bag weight distribution is bell-shaped.
