(choose chapter or problem)

A 500-page book contains 250 sheets of paper. The thickness of the paper used to manufacture the book has mean \(0.08 \mathrm{~mm}\) and standard deviation \(0.01 \mathrm{~mm}\)

a. What is the probability that a randomly chosen book is more than \(20.2 \mathrm{~mm}\) thick (not including the covers)?

b. What is the 10th percentile of book thicknesses?

c. Someone wants to know the probability that a randomly chosen page is more than \(0.01 \mathrm{~mm}\) thick.Is enough information given to compute this probability? If so, compute the probability. If not, explain why not.
