According to a Human Resources report, a worker in the industrial countries spends on average 419 minutes a day on the job. Suppose
the standard deviation of time spent on the job is 30 minutes.
a. If the distribution of time spent on the job is approximately bell shaped, between what two times would 68% of the figures be?
389
to
449
b. If the distribution of time spent on the job is approximately bell shaped, between what two times would 95% of the figures be?
359
to
479
c. If the distribution of time spent on the job is approximately bell shaped, between what two times would 99.7% of the figures be?
329
to
509
d. If the shape of the distribution of times is unknown, approximately what percentage of the times would be
between 361 and 477 minutes?
