confused @AZ

AZ:

so this is where you'd need that Z-score

AZ:

Well actually, we don't even need to. If you remember the previous question you can get 84% when you have 50 + 34% so you only need to go 1 SD above

snowflake0531:

Oh right o-o so -sd to 2sd -sd is 8 minutes so A is 9 minutes-?

snowflake0531:

Wait what idk what i was typing

snowflake0531:

Uh i think i meant 10 minutes

AZ:

that makes two of us

AZ:

let's uhh start with a) again? when you're at the mean, you're 50% sure it's cool to be 84% sure, you'd have to be one SD above so 10 + 2 mins

snowflake0531:

uh right 12 minutes

AZ:

There we go and now for the second part, it's asking about 8 minutes |dw:1620594713450:dw|

snowflake0531:

snowflake0531:

AZ:
