The average commute time in Oregon is 24 minutes, with a standard deviation of 4 minutes. For the 3 drivers in my household, what is the probability that our average commute time is over 27 minutes per day?
Solution :
mean =
= 24
standard deviation =
= 4
n = 3
=
= 24
=
/
n = 4 /
3 = 2.31
P(
> 27) = 1 - P(
< 27)
= 1 - P[(
-
) /
< (27 - 24) /2.31 ]
= 1 - P(z < 1.30)
Using z table,
= 1 - 0.9032
=0.0968
