We have
Mean, μ = 25 minutes
Standard Deviation, σ = 6.1
X = 30 minutes
The probability we are looking for is shown in the first diagram; it's the area on the right of X=30
We need to standardized the value X=30 using the formula
rounded to two dp
The z-table is shown on the second diagram only gives the probability when P(Z<z), so to work out the probability when P(Z>z), we do 1-P(Z<z)
P(Z>0.82) = 1 - P(Z<z) = 1 - 0.7939 = 0.2061
