Question 11

The duration of a specific chemical synthesis process, TTT minutes, is modeled by a normal distribution such that T∼N(μ,122)T \sim N(\mu, 12^2)T∼N(μ,122). It is observed that only 10.56%10.56\%10.56% of trials result in a synthesis time of less than 217.4217.4217.4 minutes.

a.

Determine the value of the mean reaction time μ\muμ.

b.

Deduce the value of P(217.4<T<μ)P(217.4 < T < \mu)P(217.4<T<μ).
