Breaking strength of untreated fabric


Durable press cotton fabrics are treated to enhance their recovery from wrinkles after washing. Unfortunately, the treatment also decreases the strength of the fabric. The breaking strength of untreated fabric is Normally distributed with mean 59 pounds and standard deviation 2.3 pounds. The same type of fabric after treatment has Normally distributed breaking strength with mean 28 pounds and standard deviation 1.2 pounds. A clothing manufacturer tests an SRS of 6 specimens of each fabric.

What is the probability (±0.0001) that the mean breaking strength of the 6 untreated specimens exceeds 52 pounds?
