The shell thickness of eggs is Normally distributed
\n" ); document.write( "with a mean of 0.38mm and a standard deviation of 0.03mm.
\n" ); document.write( "(iv) If two eggs were selected at random how likely is it that both would have a shell thickness of at least 0.41mm?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Find P(one of the eggs has thickness >= 0.41)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "z(0.41) = (0.41-0.38)/0.03 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "P(x >= 0.41) = P(z>= 1) = 0.1587
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "P(2 of the eggs >=0.41) = (0.1587)^2 = 0.0252
