Suppose that Wall A is constructed by stacking 30 metal blocks, and that the height of each metal block is an independent N(50, 10) normal random variable. Suppose that Wall B is constructed by stacking 25 wood blocks, and that the height of each wood block is an independent N(61, 4) normal random variable. What are the distributions of the heights of Wall A and Wall B? (b) What is the probability that Wall A is taller than Wall B?
