@phi

OpenStudy (phi):

any idea what "distribution" this is ?

OpenStudy (nurali):

no.

OpenStudy (phi):

If it's a normal distribution, 50% drive < 6.2

OpenStudy (phi):

Select all that are correct. if more than 45% correct than the others are also

OpenStudy (phi):

It is reasonable to think more than 50% drive less than 15.5 miles so you can expect more than 41 workers drive less than 15.5 miles but more than 25 is correct. (41>25) same logic for the other choices.

@phi

OpenStudy (phi):

You are a victim of a lousy question.

OpenStudy (nurali):

please tell final answer because i have no choice.

OpenStudy (phi):

This question does not make a lot of sense to me.

OpenStudy (phi):

But I would have checked all three boxes.

OpenStudy (phi):

But it looks like they only want the last choice.
