2 A company sells sugar in bags which are labelled as containing 450 grams.
Although the mean weight of sugar in a bag is more than 450 grams, there is concern that too many bags are underweight. The company can adjust the mean or the standard deviation of the weight of sugar in a bag.
- State two adjustments the company could make.
The weights, \(x\) grams, of a random sample of 25 bags are now recorded.
- Given that \(\sum x = 11409\) and \(\sum x ^ { 2 } = 5206937\), calculate the sample mean and sample standard deviation of these weights.
