What is the z-score of x= , if it is standard deviations to the left of the mean?
The life of Sunshine CD players is normally distributed with a mean of years and a standard deviation of years. A CD player is guaranteed for three years. We are interested in the length of time a CD player lasts. Find the probability that a CD player will break down during the guarantee period.
a. Sketch the situation. Label and scale the axes. Shade the region corresponding to the probability.

b. (Use zero for the minimum value of x.)
