A manufacturer receives a shipment of 500 spare parts from a supplier who claims that the lengths of the spare parts are approximately normally distributed having a mean of 2.5 cm and standard deviation of 0.04 cm. If the manufacturer takes a 10% random sample from the shipment, what is the probability that he gets a mean length of: a.More than 2.22 cm? b.More than 2.40 cm? c.Between 1.80 cm and 2.40 cm?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
