You take a random sample of 60 cans and find that the mean amount of sodium in the sample is 42.4 mg. The population standard deviation in all cans is 5.2 mg.

Answer:

-0.461

Step-by-step explanation:

By formula we know that z is equal to:

z = (x - m) / sd

of the statement we have the following information:

x is the reference value which is 40 mg

m = the sample mean is 42.4 mg,

sd = the standard deviation in all cans is 5.2 mg.

Replacing we have:

z = (40 - 42.4) /5.2

z = -0.461

Therefore the value of z is -0.461
