Statistical Analysis of Work-Hours Distribution and Probability CalculationsOverall, the amount of work-hours involved in the festival preparation by companyemployees is normally distributed around 150 hours with a standard deviation of20 hours.1)How likely (what is the probability) is it that somebody will have hisinvolved work-hours between 140 and 170?Solution.Let X be theamount of work-hours involved in the festival preparationby company employees. Then we know that X follows a normal distribution with.20,150==So,the probabilitythat somebody will have hisinvolved work-hours between 140 and 170is)170140(XPNote that)1,0(~20150NZX−=.
