200 mm199.8 mmX + Y?

X is normal with mean 120 mm and standard deviation 0.3 mm; Y is independent and normal with mean 80 mm and standard deviation 0.4 mm. Find the probability P that X + Y is more than 199.8 mm. Round z to two decimals.

μX = 120, σX = 0.3μY = 80, σY = 0.4X + Y > 199.8 mm

100 kg98.5 kgT = X₁ + … + X₄?

The masses of bags of cement are independent and normal with mean 25 kg and standard deviation 0.5 kg. Find the probability P that the total mass of 4 of them is below 98.5 kg. Round z to two decimals.

μ = 25 kgσ = 0.5 kgn = 4< 98.5 kg

5.Hard
10 g0X − Y?

The mass X of a product from line 1 and Y from line 2 are independent and normal: X has mean 500 g and standard deviation 8 g, Y has mean 490 g and standard deviation 6 g. Find the probability P that X is greater than Y. Round z to two decimals.

μX = 500 g, σX = 8 gμY = 490 g, σY = 6 g

6.Hard
μ = 178x = ?99%

The heights of adult men are normally distributed with mean 178 cm and standard deviation 7 cm. Find the value x below which 99% of them lie (the 99th percentile).

μ = 178σ = 7P = 99%
x = cm
