1)Suppose that the weight of tomato juice in mechanically filled cans follows a normal distribution with a mean of 464 grams and a standard deviation of 8 grams.

a)A random sample of size n = 18 cans is taken. Will the sampling distribution of the sample mean weight be normal? Why or why not, or can it not be determined?

1 answer

The larger the sample, the more likely it will approximate a normal distribution.
