Question:

In the manufacture of electroluminescent lamps, several different layers of ink are deposited onto a plastic substrate. The thickness of these layers is critical if specifications regarding the final color and intensity of light of the lamp are to be met. Let X and Y denote the thickness of two different layers of ink. It is known that X is normally distributed with a mean of 0.1 millimeter and a standard deviation of 0.00031 millimeter and Y is also normally distributed with a mean of 0.23 millimeter and a standard deviation of 0.00017 millimeter. The value of = for these variables is equal to zero. Specifications call for a lamp to have a thickness of the ink corresponding to X in the range of 0.099535 to 0.100465 millimeters and Y in the range of 0.22966 to 0.23034 millimeters. What is the probability that a randomly selected lamp will conform to specifications?
