For a certain type of computers, the length of time between charges of the battery is normally distributed with a mean of 62 hours and a standard deviation of 11 hours. John owns one of these computers and wants to know the number of hours when the computer would have 12% of its battery life left. Sketch the region in question. Write a sentence describing what your answer represents about the problem's specefics.

Question

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
