The manager of a computer retails store is concerned that his suppliers have been giving him laptop computers with lower than average quality. His research shows that replacement times for the model laptop of concern are normally distributed with a mean of 4 years and a standard deviation of 0.5 years. He then randomly selects records on 45 laptops sold in the past and finds that the mean replacement time is 3.8 years. Assuming that the laptop replacement times have a mean of 4 years and a standard deviation of 0.5 years, find the probability that 45 randomly selected laptops will have a mean replacement time of 3.8 years or less. P(M < 3.8 years) = I got .0037 before but apparenly it is wrong so I would like to know what I did wrong and the correct answer. Thank you. Enter your answer as a number accurate to 4 decimal places. NOTE: Answers obtained using exact z-scores or z-scores rounded to 3 decimal places are accepted.
