The length of time it takes to find a parking space at 9 A. M. follows a normal distribution with a mean of 5 minutes and a standard deviation of 2 minutes. Seventy percent of the time, it takes more than how many minutes to find a parking space? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

And if we solve for a we got

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the lenght time it takes to find a parking space at 9AM of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

  (a)

  (b)

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.7 of the area on the left and 0.3 of the area on the right it's z=0.524

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

And if we solve for a we got

"image"

step-by-step explanation:

in most of these problems, the notation is that the point with a "prime" is the image of the point without. that is, b' is the image of b.

here, there is no dilation or reflection. there is simply translation (with no direction shown). which figure you call the "preimage" and which one you call the "image" is up to you. as a matter of convention, the naming is as described above.
