Suppose that the number of customers who enter a supermarket each hour is normally distributed with a mean of 670 and a standard deviation of 160.The supermarket is open 14 hours per day. What is the probability that the total number of customers who enter the supermarket in one day is greaterthan 10000? (Hint: Calculate the average hourly number of customers necessary to exceed 10000 in one 14-hour day.)Probability =

A dean in the business school claims that GMAT scores of applicants to the school's MBA program have increased during the past 5 years. Five years ago, the mean and standard deviation of GMAT scores of MBA applicants were 550 and 60, respectively. 30 applications for this year's program were randomly selected and the GMAT scores recorded. If we assume that the distribution of GMAT scores of this year's applicants is the same as that of 5 years ago, find the probability of erroneously concluding that there is not enough evidence to supports the claim when, in fact, the true mean GMAT score is 590. Assume αα is 0.02.
