All you need to do is divide 161 by 7 and get 23 weeks
Answer:
the pennies does not conform to the US mints specification
Step-by-step explanation:
z = (variate -mean)/ standard deviation
z= 2.5 - 2.4991 / 0.01648 = 0.0546
we are going to check the value of z in the normal distribution table, which is the table bounded by z.
checking for z= 0.0 under 55 gives 0.0219 (value gotten from the table of normal distribution)
we subtract the value of z from 0.5 (1- (0.5+0.0219)) = 0.4781 > 0.05claim
since 0.4781 > 0.05claim, therefore, the pennies does not conform to the US mints specification
the claim state a 5% significance level whereas the calculated significance level is 47.81%. therefore, the claim should be rejected
