Question: A popular soft drink is sold in 2-liter (2,000-milliliter) bottles. Because of variation in the filling process, bottles have a mean of 2,000 milliliters and a standard deviation of 20, normally distributed.

a. If the process fills the bottle by more than 50 milliliters, the overflow will cause a machine malfunction. What is the probability of this occurring?

b. What is the probability of underfilling the bottles by at least 30 milliliters?
