The shape of the distribution of the time required to get an oil change at a

15-minute

oil-change facility is unknown. However, records indicate that the mean time is

16.1minutes,

and the standard deviation is

3.7minutes.

(a) To compute probabilities regarding the sample mean using the normal model, what size sample would be required?

Choose the required sample size below.

A.

The sample size needs to be less than 30.

B.

The sample size needs to be greater than 30.

C.

The normal model cannot be used if the shape of the distribution is unknown.

D.

Any sample size could be used.

(b) What is the probability that a random sample of

n=40

oil changes results in a sample mean time less than

15

minutes?

The probability is approximately

(c) Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil-change facility will perform

40

oil changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random sample, at what mean oil-change time would there be a 10% chance of being at or below? This will be the goal established by the manager.
