A. The average travel time of a student from B. A domestic tourist from Luzon spends an
home to school is 90 minutes with standard average of P20,000 with standard deviation of
deviation of 8.5 minutes. P2,650 every time she goes to certain tourist
destinations in Visayas.
1. What is the probability that a student’s home-
to-school travel time is over 100 minutes? 1. What is the probability that a domestic tourist
spent between P15,000 and P18,000?

3. What is the probability that a student’s home- 3. What is the probability that a domestic tourist
to-school travel time is less than 60 minutes? spent P30,000 at the least?

4. What is the probability that a student’s home-
to-school travel time is between 65 minutes 4. What is the probability that a domestic tourist
and 110 minutes? spent either below P12,500 or above
