Answer:

$Y = X_1 + X_2$

If we find the expected value of Y we got:

$E(Y) = E(X_1) + E(X_2) = 3.25 + 3.25 =6.5$

And for the variance we assume that we have independent random variables for X1 and X2 so then we have:

$Var(Y) = Var(X_1) + Var(X_2) = \sigma^2 + \sigma^2 = 2 \sigma^2 = 2*(0.05^2) = 0.005$

And the deviation $Sd(Y) = \sqrt{0.005}=0.0707$

So then our random variable Y have the following distribution:

$Y \sim N (\mu =6,5 , \sigma = 0.0707)$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(Y$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z=\frac{y -\mu_y}{\sigma_y}$

And if we use the z score formula we got:

$P(Y$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the lenghts of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(3.25,0.05)$

Where $\mu=3.25$ and $\sigma=0.05$

We slect two observations $X_1, X_2$

And let denote the combined lenght as:

$Y = X_1 + X_2$

If we find the expected value of Y we got:

$E(Y) = E(X_1) + E(X_2) = 3.25 + 3.25 =6.5$

And for the variance we assume that we have independent random variables for X1 and X2 so then we have:

$Var(Y) = Var(X_1) + Var(X_2) = \sigma^2 + \sigma^2 = 2 \sigma^2 = 2*(0.05^2) = 0.005$

And the deviation $Sd(Y) = \sqrt{0.005}=0.0707$

So then our random variable Y have the following distribution:

$Y \sim N (\mu =6,5 , \sigma = 0.0707)$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(Y$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z=\frac{y -\mu_y}{\sigma_y}$

And if we use the z score formula we got:

$P(Y$
