Chapters: Normal and Exponential random variables.   Q: The cross-secitonal area of plastic tubing for use in pulmonary resuscitators is normally distributed with mean of 12.5 squared mm and a standard deviation of 0.2 squared mm. When the area is less than 12.0 squared mm or greater than 13.0 squared mm, the tube does not fit properly. If the tubes are shipped in boxes of one thousand, how many wrong-sized tubes per box can doctors expect to find?
