Ch.6. "A carpet manufacturing company is comparing the tensile strengths of two different types of synthetic fiber. Synthetic fiber A used in manufacturing carpet has tensile strength that is normally distributed with mean 75 psi and standard deviation 8 psi, and synthetic fiber B has tensile strength that is 70 psi and standard deviation 12 psi. Random sample f nA = 16 and nB = 9 of fiber specimens are selected. Find the probability that 3.5 < XA- XB < 6.5. Determine the value of zs. P(
