Yoonie is a personnel manager in a large corporation. Each month she must review of the employees. From past experience, she has found that the reviews take her approximately four hours each to do with a population standard deviation of hours. Let Χ be the random variable representing the time it takes her to complete one review. Assume Χ is normally distributed. Let be the random variable representing the meantime to complete the reviews. Assume that the reviews represent a random set of reviews.
Find the probability that one review will take Yoonie from to hours. Sketch the graph, labeling and scaling the horizontal axis. Shade the region corresponding to the probability

NeverReady batteries has engineered a newer, longer lasting AAA battery. The company claims this battery has an average life span of hours with a standard deviation of hours. Your statistics class questions this claim. As a class, you randomly select batteries and find that the sample mean life span is hours. If the process is working properly, what is the probability of getting a random sample of batteries in which the sample mean lifetime is hours or less? Is the company’s claim reasonable?
