Part 1
The Rockwell hardness of a metal is determined by impressing a
hardened point into the surface of the metal and then measuring the
depth of penetration of the point. Suppose the Rockwell hardness of
a particular alloy is normally distributed with mean 72 and
standard deviation 3.
(b) If the acceptable range of hardness is (72 − c, 72
+ c), for what value of c would 95% of all
specimens have acceptable hardness? (Round your answer to...
