Question 866383: A golf equipment company produces drivers that are stated to be 44 inches long. Suppose that the distribution of the actual lengths of these drivers is normal with mean 44 inches and standard deviation 0.1 inches.
You purchase a new 44-inch driver from this company. What is the probability that its length differs from 44 inches by more than 0.15 inches?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
P(x < 43.85) = P(z < -.15/.1 = -1.5) = .06681
P(x> 44.15 = P(z > 1.5) = .06681
the probability that its length differs from 44 inches by more than 0.15
2(.06681)
