Let "X=" the weight of potato chips in ounces: "X\\sim N(\\mu, \\sigma^2)"
Then
Given that "\\mu_0=10.2 \\ ounces, \\sigma=0.14\\ ounces"
If "P(X<10)=0.015," find "\\mu_{new}"
Then
"\\mu_{new}=10+0.14(2.170090)\\approx10.3"
"\\mu_{new}-\\mu_0=10.3-10.2=0.1"
The engineer needs to increase the mean by "0.1" ounces. New mean will be "10.3" ounces.
