(i) As part of a recruitment exercise candidates are required to complete three separate tasks. The times taken, , and , in minutes, for candidates to complete the three tasks are such that
, and
The time taken by an individual candidate to complete each task is assumed to be independent of the time taken to complete each of the other tasks.
A candidate is selected at random.
(a) Find the probability that the candidate takes a total time of more than 90 minutes to complete all three tasks.
(b) Find
(ii) A simple random sample, , is taken from a normal population with mean and standard deviation
Given that
and that
where is a constant,
find the value of , giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures. You should show all stages of your working.

(i) 作为招聘活动的一部分,候选人需要完成三个独立任务。完成三个任务所用的时间分别为 A、B 和 C(单位:分钟),且
A ~ N(21, 2^2),B ~ N(32, 7^2),C ~ N(45, 9^2)
假设候选人完成每个任务所需时间彼此独立。
随机选取一名候选人。
(a) 求该候选人完成全部三个任务所用总时间超过 90 分钟的概率。
(b) 求 P(A > B)。
(ii) 从一个均值为 μ、标准差为 σ 的正态总体中抽取一个简单随机样本 X1, X2, X3, X4。
已知
X̄ = (X1 + X2 + X3 + X4) / 4
并且
P(X1 > X̄ + kσ) = 0.1
其中 k 为常数。
求 k 的值,答案保留 3 位有效数字。你应写出全部过程。
