A random sample of size 36 is taken from a normal population having a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 5. A second random sample of size 25 is taken from a different normal population having a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 4. Find the probability that the sample mean computed from the 36 measurements will exceed the sample mean computed from the 25 measurements by at least 3.4 but less than 5.9. Assume the difference of the means to be measured to the nearest tenth. Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page 2 of the standard normal distribution table. The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

A random sample of size 36 is taken from a normal population having a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 5. A
second random sample of size 25 is taken from a different normal population having a mean of 60 and a standard
deviation of 4. Find the probability that the sample mean computed from the 36 measurements will exceed the
sample mean computed from the 25 measurements by at least 3.4 but less than 5.9. Assume the difference of the
means to be measured to the nearest tenth.
