One day he finds that the mean weight is 14.6 oz. with a standard deviation of 0.6 oz. Below is a dot plot of the sample. (a) Describe the distribution of the weights of the bags of cashews in this sample. (b) Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the mean weight of cashews in one bag. (c) Suppose the (population) mean weight in the bags really is 15 ounces and the (population) standard deviation is 0.75 ounces and that the weights are Normally distributed.
