Let ? denote the amount of time a randomly selected customer spends on hold with some insurance company. Suppose X follows a distribution with a mean of 8 hours and a variance of 16 hours. The population density curve for X is shown below 1. If you randomly pick one-hundred customers, find the probability that the average time spent on hold is within 1 hour of the population mean.
