The masses, in kilograms, of large and small bags of potatoes have the independent distribution N(2.5,0.05) and N(0.8,0.02) respectively.
(a) Find the probability that the total mass of a randomly chosen large bag of potatoes and a randomly chosen small bag of potatoes is more than 3.55kg.
(5)
(b) Find the probability that the mass of a randomly chosen large bag of potatoes is less than 3 times the mass of a randomly chosen small bag of potatoes.
Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
