If this question is on the exam, I'm going to need a larger whiteboard to work out all the z-values.

I'm just hoping the exam doesn't ask us to make one of those plots by hand. That would be a nightmare!

Wait, aren't normal probability plots used to find the percent out of specification? That's like the whole reason we use them in quality control.
