In the manufacture of electroluminescent lamps, several different layers of ink are deposited onto a plastic substrate. The thickness of these layers is critical if specifications regarding the final color and intensity of light are to be met. Let X1 and X2 denote the thickness of two different layers of ink. It is known that X1 is normally distributed with a mean of 0.1 mm and a standard deviation of 0.00031 mm, and X2 is also normally distributed with a mean of 0.23 mm and a standard deviation of 0.00017 mm. Assume that these variables are independent. Let T as in the total thickness. a.) Find the estimated ink total thickness b.) Find the estimated standard deviation of the ink total thickness
