During the course of a criminal investigation, the identification and comparison of human or
animal hairs can be helpful in demonstrating possible physical contact between a suspect and
victim or in establishing a suspect's presence at a crime scene. The victim in a recent murder
investigation owned a Labrador retriever; the Labrador breed has hair with mean cross-sectional
diameter =31 micrometers and standard = 14 micrometers. A shirt found in the automobile trunk
of the prime murder suspect has 36 strands of black dog hair clinging to it (in a laboratory human
and dog hair are easily distinguished). The suspect claims that the dog hair on his shirt is from
his dog, a Doberman; the Doberman breed has hair with mean cross-sectional diameter =21
micrometers and standard deviation =8 micrometers. Question 1. If the 36 dog hairs on the
suspect's shirt are from the murder victim's Labrador, what is the probability that their mean
cross-sectional diameter x is between 25 and 27 micrometers? (use 4 decimal places) Question 2.
If the 36 dog hairs on the suspect's shirt are from the suspect's Doberman, what is the probability
that their mean cross-sectional diameter x is between 25 and micrometers? (use 4 decimal places)
