A study found that the mean amount of time cars spent in drive-throughs of a certain fast-food restaurant was 139.2 seconds. Assuming drive-through times are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 25 seconds, complete parts (a) through (d) below.
(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected car will get through the restaurant's drive-through in less than 96 seconds?
The probability that a randomly selected car will get through the restaurant's drive-through in less than 96 seconds is?
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected car will spend more than 177 seconds in the restaurant's drive-through?
The probability that a randomly selected car will spend more than 177 seconds in the restaurant's drive-through is?
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(c) What proportion of cars spend between 2 and 3 minutes in the restaurant's drive-through?
The proportion of cars that spend between 2 and 3 minutes in the restaurant's drive-through is?
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(d) Would it be unusual for a car to spend more than 3 minutes in the restaurant's drive-through? Why?
The probability that a car spends more than 3 minutes in the restaurant's drive-through is? so it would/would not? be unsual, since the probablity is greater or less? than 0.05.?
