An electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a length life with normal distribution, and mean equal to 800 hours, and a variance of 7. Find the probability that a random sample of 21 light bulbs will have a sample variance S² greater than 13.15. Find the probability that a random sample of 40 light bulbs will have a sample variance S² of at most 5.88.
