Admission Charge for Movies The average admission
charge for a movie is $5.81. If the distribution of movie
admission charges is approximately normal with a standard
deviation of $0.81, what is the probability that a randomly
selected admission charge is less than $3.50?
The American Automobile Association reports that the average time it
takes to respond to an emergency call is 25 minutes. Assume the
variable is approximately normally distributed and the standard
deviation is 4.5 minutes. If 80 calls are randomly selected,
approximately how many will be responded to in less than 15 minutes
