Question 55 Marks
The diameter of copper wire follows normal distribution.
If the mean of its normal distribution is $11\ mm$ and
standard deviation is $1\ mm$, find $P _{15}$ and 
$(D _9)$ of the distribution and interpret them.
Answer
$P_{15}=9.97 mm$, Diameter of wire will be less than
$9.97 mm$ in $15 \%$ of the cases $D_9=12.28\ mm$,
Diameter of wire will be less than $12.28\ mm$ in
$(90 \%)$ of the cases
$(1)\ 2075.6\ kg\ (2)\ 66.48 \%$
