The lengths, in metres, of cars in a city are normally distributed with mean \(\mu\) and standard deviation 0.714. The probability that a randomly chosen car has a length more than 3.2 metres and less than \(\mu\) metres is 0.475. Find \(\mu\).
Gem stones from a certain mine have weights, \(X\) grams, which are normally distributed with mean 1.9 g and standard deviation 0.55 g. These gem stones are sorted into three categories for sale depending on their weights, as follows.
Small: under 1.2 g Medium: between 1.2 g and 2.5 g Large: over 2.5 g
