(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected bag contains fewer 1050 chocolate chips?

(c) What proportion of bags contains more than 1175 chocolate chips?

(d) What is the percentile rank of a bag that contains 1475 chocolate chips?

Round to four decimal places as needed.

Explanation / Answer

The number of chocolate chips in an 18 ounce bag of chocolate chips os approxiamately normally distributed with a mean of 1252 chipos and standard deviation 129 chips.

Z value for 1000, (1000-1252)/129 = -1.95

Z value for 1500, (1500-1252)/129 = 1.92

P( 1000<X<1500) = P( -1.95<z<1.92) =

P( z <1.92)
