Suppose you select a set of 100 eggs at random in each


At station A, the egg hatch rate (computed from a set of 100 eggs at a time) is known to follow approximately a normal distribution with mean 62% and standard deviation 5%. At station B, the egg hatch rates are known to follow approximately a normal distribution with mean 58% and standard deviation 8%. An entomologist defines a high egg hatch rate as one that is 70% or more. Suppose you select a set of 100 eggs at random in each station. Which of the two sets of eggs is more likely to have a high hatch rate?
