A container of one dozen large eggs was purchased at a local grocery store. Each egg was measured to determine its diameter (in millimeters) and weight (in grams). The results for the 12 eggs are given in the following table. Weight is the dependent variable. Index Diameter (mm) Weight (grams) 1 42.2 52.8 2 45.45 58.5 3 47.8 60.2 4 47.4 59 5 47.7 57.4 6 43.5 54.1 7 44.4 53.9 8 43.9 54.5 9 46.2 56.2 10 45.9 55.8 11 44.3 54.3 12 44.5 56.1

Mean Diameter (D) = (42.2 + 45.45 + 47.8 + 47.4 + 47.7 + 43.5 + 44.4 + 43.9 + 46.2 + 45.9 + 44.3 + 44.5) / 12 Mean Diameter (D) = 547.65 / 12 Mean Diameter (D) ≈ 45.64 mm Mean Weight (W) = (52.8 + 58.5 + 60.2 + 59 + 57.4 + 54.1 + 53.9 + 54.5 + 56.2 + 55.8 + 54.3 Show more…

The egg whites from four "large" eggs occupy a volume of $112 \mathrm{~mL}$. The mass of the egg whites from these four eggs is $1.20 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~g}$. What is the average density of an egg white from one "large" egg?
To be graded extra large, an egg must weigh at least 2.2 oz. If the average weight for an egg is 1.5 oz, with a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, how many eggs in a sample of five dozen would you expect to grade extra large?
