Question

Soda comes in cans where the amount of carbonated refreshment contained in each can is normally distributed with a mean of 12.1 fluid ounces and a standard deviation of 0.12 fluid ounces.  Let the random variable S measure the amount of liquid in a randomly selected soda can.

State the distribution of the random variable S.
Group of answer choices
S∼Normal(0,1)
S∼Uniform(11.98,12.22)
S∼Continuous(12.1,0.12)
S∼Normal(12.1,0.12)
