Answer:the z score is - 1

Explanation:

Assuming a normal distribution for the delivery time of sandwiches by Sammy's Sandwich Shop. We would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = delivery times

u = mean delivery time

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 25 minutes

s = 2 minutes

We want to determine the z-score for the number of sandwiches delivered in less than 23 minutes. It becomes

z = (23 - 25)/2 = - 1
