The shape of the distribution of the time required to get an oil change at a 20-minute oil-change facility is unknown. However, records indicate that the mean time is 21.2 minutes, with a standard deviation of 3.2 minutes. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

**Useful Resources:**
- Click here to view the standard normal distribution table (page 1).
- Click here to view the standard normal distribution table (page 2).

**Questions:**

- **C.** The sample size needs to be greater than 30.
- **D.** The normal model cannot be used if the shape of the distribution is unknown.

**Exercise:**

(b) What is the probability that a random sample of n = 40 oil changes results in a sample mean time less than 20 minutes?

- **Probability Calculation:** Use the appropriate statistical methods to calculate this. Ensure your answer is rounded to four decimal places as needed.
