Suppose you have a random variable X that represents the
lifetime of a certain brand of light bulbs. Assume that the
lifetime of light bulbs are approximately normally distributed with
mean 1400 and standard deviation 200 (in other words X ~ N(1400,
2002)).
Answer the following using the standard normal distribution

The Spaaaarkling Toothpaste Company sells its product in 250
milliliter (ml) tubes. Due to a problem at the manufacturing plant,
the individual tubes in a particular shipment have a mean amount of
only 195 ml, a standard deviation of 38 ml, but still follow a
Normal distribution. A store receives the defective shipment and
offers to sell at a discount: 3 of the defective tubes for the
price of 2.
In the defective shipment, what is the standard deviation of...
