Answer:

95.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean (m) is equal to 20, the standard deviation (sd) 3

They ask us for P (x <25)

For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:

z = (x - m) / sd

We have all these values, replacing we have:

z = (25 - 20) / (3)

z = 1.66

With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:

P (z <1.66) = 0.9515

Which means that the probability that it arrives before 25 minutes is 95.15%
