Answer:

18 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Murrr4er [49]
The probability is 0.9671.

The z-score for this is given by

z = (x - μ)/(σ/√n)
z = (38000-37500)/(1561/(√33)) = 1.84.

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area under the curve to the left of, less than, this is 0.9671.
