Question: Maria and Ellen both specialize in throwing the javelin. Maria throws the javelin a mean distance of 200 feet with a standard deviation of 10 feet, whereas Ellen throws the javelin a mean distance of 210 feet with a standard deviation of 12 feet. Assume that the distances each of these athletes throws the javelin are normally distributed with these population means and standard deviations. If Maria and Ellen each throw the javelin once, what is the probability that Maria's throw is longer than Ellen's?
