The following distribution is for two populations (A and B) that have normal distributions for cholesterol. with known standard deviations and based on sample size 20. The shaded area in the given distribution is 0.475. If a sample (n=20) was taken from each population what is the probability that sample A is at least 9 units higher than that of sample B.

The weights of large eggs are normally distributed with mean 65 grams and standard deviation 4 grams. The weights of standard eggs are normally distributed with mean 50 grams and standard deviation 3 grams. 1. One large egg and one standard egg are chosen at random. Find the probability that the weight of the standard egg is more than 4/5 of the weight of the large egg. 2. Standard eggs are sold in packs of 12 while large eggs are sold in packs of 5. Find the probability that the weight of a pack of standard eggs differs from twice the weight of a pack of large eggs by at most 5 grams. This is Probability and Statistics

Maddie has two different routes that she can take to get to school. The first route is a longer distance, but has no traffic lights. The second route is a shorter distance, but has a lot of traffic lights. The amount of time it takes to get to school by the "longer distance" route follows a Normal distribution with mean 20 minutes and standard deviation o = 1.5 mirutes. The amount of time it takes to get to school by the "shorter distance" route follows a Normal distribution with mean =17 minutes and standard deviation a = 6.5 minutes. Suppose we select independent random samples of 20 days for each route. Let XL-Xs be the đifference in the sample mean travel time for the two routes %3D %3D (a) Calculate the probability that the sample mean time for the longer distance is shorter than the sample mean time for the shorter distance. (b) Should we be surprised if the sample mean time for the longer distance is shorter than the sample mean time for the shorter distance?
