01:09:27 Response time is an important statistic for measuring the effectiveness of a fire department, and is measured as the difference between the time a fire station receives a call and the time the first piece of fire equipment leaves the station. The response times for fire departments in a large city are found to have an approximately Normal distribution, with a mean of 4.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes. What percentage of fire station response times are under 3 minutes? Find the z-table here. 6.68% 10.56% 89.44% 93.32%

Response time is an important statistic for measuring the effectiveness of a fire department, and is measured as
the difference between the time a fire station receives a call and the time the first piece of fire equipment leaves the
station. The response times for fire departments in a large city are found to have an approximately Normal
distribution, with a mean of 4.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes. What percentage of fire station
response times are under 3 minutes?
