Question

The time X it takes Hattan to drive to work on a randomly selected day follows a distribution that is approximately Normal with mean 15 minutes and standard deviation 6.5 minutes. Once he parks his car in his reserved space, it takes 5 more minutes for him to walk to his office. Let T = the total time it takes Hattan to reach his office on a randomly selected day, so T = X + 5. Describe the shape, center, and variability of the probability distribution of T.

Answer 1

Answer:

Shape: Approximately Normal

Center: 20 minutes

Variability: 6.5 minutes.
