Question

In general, train commuting time for VU students travelling to campus from home is normally distributed with a mean of 52 minutes and a standard deviation of 7 minutes. If a student is randomly selected, how likely is it the student took less than 49 minutes to travel to campus by train?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
