Suppose Abby tracks her travel time to work for 60 days and determines that her mean travel time, in minutes, is 35.6. Assume the travel times are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 10.3 min. Determine the travel time ?x such that 29.46% of the 60 days have a travel time that is at least ?x. You may find this standard normal distribution table or this list of software manuals useful. Give your answer rounded to two decimal places.
