Question

Recall that the trash bag manufacturer has concluded that its new 30-gallon bag will be the strongest such bag on the market if its breaking strength is at least 50 pounds. Suppose that (unknown to the manufacturer) the breaking strengths of the new 30-gallon bag are normally distributed with a mean of μ = 50.6 pounds and a standard deviation of σ = 1.62 pounds.
