and 18 min, respectively. Find also, to the nearest minutes, the estimated
mean and standard deviation for the duration of all 100 journeys.

12 A factory produces both metal rods and tubes. The internal diameter, in cm,
of a metal tube is distributed N( 2.2, 0.0009). The diameter, in cm , of a metal
rod is distributed N( 2.15, 0.0004).
(a) Find the percentage of tubes with internal diameter less than 2.14 cm.
(b) Find the percentage of rods with diameter greater than 2.1 cm and less
than 2.2cm.
(c) A rod and a tube are chosen at random. Find the probability that the rod
will not pass through the tube.
(d) Three packets, each containing a rod and a tube, are chosen at random.
Find the probability that two packets contain rods that will pass through their
respective tubes and the other will not.

(Angle at the centre is twice angle at the circumference) B1
OR = OS (radius of circle)
ROS is isosceles
OSR = ORS = 60
