Question:

Some vending machines are designed so that their owners can adjust the weights of the quarters that are accepted. If many counterfeit coins are found, adjustments are made to reject more coins, with the effect that most of the counterfeit coins are rejected along with many legal coins. Assume that quarters have weights that are normally distributed with a mean of 5.67 g and a standard deviation of 0.070 g. If a vending machine is adjusted to reject quarters weighing less than 5.50 g or more than 5.80 g, what is the percentage of legal quarters that are rejected?
