An ethanol railroad tariff is a fee charged for shipments of
ethanol on public railroads. An agricultural association publishes
tariff rates for railroad-car shipments of ethanol. Assuming
that the standard deviation of such tariff rates is
$900,
determine the probability that the mean tariff rate of
400
randomly selected railroad-car shipments of ethanol will
be within
$110
of the mean tariff rate of all railroad-car shipments of
ethanol. Interpret your answer in terms of sampling error.
