#1. Wool fibre breaking strengths are normally distributed with mean= 23.56 Newtons and standard deviation, = 4.55.
a) what proportion of fibres would have a breaking strength of 14.45 or less?
b)what proportion of fibres would have a breaking strength of 12.45 or more?
c) what proportion of fibres would have a breaking strength between 20 and 30?
d) what proportion of fibres would have a breaking strength between 19.01 and 28.11?
the table provided is for P(0<Z<z) for eg if z=1.44 then we take the value where the row containing 1.4 and column containing 4 intersect which is 0.4265 .
