One batch of a cake mixture contains X litres of ingredient A and Y litres of ingredient B, where X and Y have the independent distributions X∼N(25.5,0.07) and Y∼N(26.0,0.08).
(a) Find the probability that, in a randomly chosen batch of the mixture, the number of litres of ingredient A is greater than the number of litres of ingredient B.
(5)
The mass of 1 litre of ingredient A is mkg and the mass of 1 litre of ingredient B is 1.5mkg, where m is a constant.
(b) Given that the probability that the total mass of a randomly chosen batch of the mixture is less than 70kg is 0.3, find the value of m.
