Application Exercise: Process Analysis (probability distributions) 1) Kiwi Oil is sold in 950-milliliter (ml) cans. The mean volume of oil placed in a can is 920 ml with a standard deviation of 12 ml. Assuming a normal distribution, what is the probability that the filling machine will cause an overflow of a can, that is, the probability that more than 950 ml will be placed in the can? 2) The standard deviation of the weight of filled salt containers is 0.4 ounce. If 2.5 percent of the containers contain less than 16 ounces, what is the mean filling weight of the containers? 3) The dimension of a machined part made by Machinheimer Machinery has a nominal specification of 11.9 cm. The process that produces the part can be controlled to have a mean value equal to this specification, but has a standard deviation of 0.05 cm. What is the probability that a part will have a dimension: 1. a) exceeding 12 cm? 2. b) less than 11.83 cm?
