Answer: 0.0228
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the weight of a product.
The probability that a randomly selected unit from a recently manufactured batch weighs more than 5 ounces:
[tex]P(X>5)\\\\=P(\dfrac{X-Mean}{\sqrt{Variance}}>\dfrac{5-4}{\sqrt{0.25}})\\\\=P(Z>\dfrac{1}{0.5}) \ \ \ [z=\dfrac{X-Mean}{\sqrt{Variance}}]\\\\=P(z>2)\\\\=1-P(Z<2)\\\\=1-0.9772\ \ [\text{Using p value table}]\\\\=0.0228[/tex]
Hence, the required probability = 0.0228
