The Candy Shoppe assembles gift boxes that contain 8 chocolate truffles and 2 handmade caramel nougats. The truffles have a mean weight of 2 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.5 ounce, and the nougats have a mean weight of 4 ounces with a standard deviation of 1 ounce. The empty boxes have mean weight 3 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.2 ounce.
a. Assumingthattheweightsofthetruffles,nougats,andboxes are independent, what are the mean and standard deviation of the weight of a box of candy?
b. Assuming that the weights of the truffles, nougats, and boxes are approximately Normally distributed, what is the probability that a randomly selected box of candy will weigh more than 30 ounces?
c. Iffivegiftboxesarerandomlyselected,whatistheprobability that at least one of them will weigh more than 30 ounces?
d. If five gift boxes are randomly selected, what is the probability that the mean weight of the five boxes will be more than 30 ounces?
