Emily regularly runs a course that starts at the front of her house, goes to point P (which is on the route she takes to go to work), and comes back. She would like to know the total distance. She will use the odometer in her car. This odometer gives a reading that has mean equal to the distance driven and a standard deviation of .05. Consider the following two options. A -- She drives her car from her house...

A salesperson travels regularly between her home in NYC to her main customer in Boston. Because of traffic conditions the amount of gas she needs is not always the same. In fact, the amount of gas needed for this trip is normally distributed with a mean of 12 gallons and a standard deviation 1.5 gallons. Her car can hold 13 gallons of gas. a.     Suppose she sets out with a full tank. What is the probability that she will be...
