Answer: 0.7887

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable that represents the diameters of the corks .

Given :  The first produces corks with diameters that are normally distributed with mean 3 cm and standard deviation 0.08 cm.

i.e. \mu=3\ cm\ \ ,\sigma=0.08\ cm

Acceptable corks have diameters between 2.9 cm and 3.1 cm.

Then, the probability that the first machine produces an acceptable cork will be :_

P(2.9

∴ The  probability that the first machine produces an acceptable cork= 0.7887
