Finite Population Correction Factor · Exercise 10
Trucks pass an automatic scale that monitors 2,000 trucks. This population of trucks has an average weight of 20 tons with a standard deviation of 2 tons. If a sample of 50 trucks is taken, what is the probability the sample will have an average weight within one-half ton of the population mean?
