Given:
The lengths of time spent in the store are normally distributed and are represented by the variable X
The survey indicates that for each trip to a supermarket, a shopper spends an average of 43 minutes with a standard deviation of 12 minutes in the store.
so, the mean = μ = 43
And the standard deviation = σ = 12 minutes
We will find the probability that supermarkets between 31 and 58 minutes
We will use the following formula to convert to the z-scores
So, we will find Z when x = 31 and When x = 58
So, we will find the probability of P (-1 < z < 1.25)
From the tables of the z-score:
[tex]P(-1So, the answer will be
0.7357
