5.5-9. Suppose that the length of life in hours (say, XX ) of a light bulb manufactured by company AA is N(800,14400)N(800,14400) and the length of life in hours (say, YY ) of a light bulb manufactured by company BB is N(850,2500)N(850,2500). One bulb is randomly selected from each company and is burned until "death." (a) Find the probability that the length of life of the bulb from company AA exceeds the length of life of the bulb from company BB by at least 15 hours.
