Introduction to Statistics (Bus-172)

Q3. A car washing company guarantees that the maximum waiting time for its customers is 20
minutes. It also guarantees that any customer who has to wait longer than 20 minutes for this
service will receive a 50% discount on the charges. It is estimated that the mean time taken for
car washing service is 18 minutes per car and the standard deviation is 2.5 minutes. Suppose
the time taken for washing per car has a normal distribution.
(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected customer will have to wait between 15 to
22 minutes? Also, show the relevant area under the normal curve including standard normal
scale.
(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected customer will have to wait at most 25
minutes?
(c) What percentage of the customers will receive the 50% discount on their charges?
