A particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 489 grams and a standard deviation of 20 grams. If you pick one fruit at random, what is the probability that it will weigh between 440 grams and 462 grams Round to 3 decimal places.
Added by Vivian N.
Step 1
First, we need to find the z-scores for both 440 grams and 462 grams. The z-score formula is: z = (X - μ) / σ where X is the value, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation. Show more…
