| Description | We can now return to the example in Section 1.4 and answer some of the questions posed there. The amount of caffeine in a randomly chosen cup of coffee can be thought of as a random variable. Suppose that you know that the standard deviation of caffeine content is 4 mg (σ = 4). Recall that the company claims that the average caffeine content is 50 mg (μ = 50). A probabilist will now, most likely, model the amount of caffeine in a particular cup of coffee as the realization of a random variable X ~ N(50, 16).
