Automobile repair costs continue to rise with the average cost now at $367 per repair.† Assume that the cost for an automobile repair is normally distributed with a standard deviation of $88. Answer the following questions about the cost of automobile repairs.

(a)

What is the probability that the cost will be more than $440? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(b)

What is the probability that the cost will be less than $280? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(c)

What is the probability that the cost will be betw

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
