A Statistical Tutorial Centre has been designed to handle a maximum of 25 students per day. Suppose that the number X of students visiting this centre each day is a normal random variable with mean 15 and variance 16. Part a) What is the return period for this centre rounded to the nearest day? how should i start this question?

i did x~N(15,16) p(x>25) and got 161. is it correct?

OpenStudy (kropot72):

The return period = 1/p where p = probability that x>25. Now you need to find the z-score for 25............

OpenStudy (kropot72):

161 days is correct :)
