In this question, we are looking at a normal distribution.
00:03
Let's start by drawing it.
00:04
The total area under this curve is 1, or 100%, and it is symmetric.
00:10
Its mean is 25 days, its standard deviation is a day.
00:14
In part , we want the probability that a randomly selected egg takes longer than 26 days to hatch.
00:23
Okay, so to approach this, we are going to find this area.
00:28
So 26 is above the mean.
00:31
And we need this area here, to its right.
00:33
To find that, you need something with the normal distribution built into it.
00:37
That could be software like excel.
00:39
It could be azscoretable.
00:41
I'm going to use my ti -84 calculator with the normal cdf function.
00:46
It has four inputs.
00:47
Lower bound, upper bound, mean, and standard deviation.
00:51
Now this gives me the area between the lower bound and upper bound.
00:55
My lower is going to be 26...
