Mathematics: A physical fitness association is including the mile run in its secondary- school fitness test. The time for this event for boys in secondary school is known to possess a normal distribution with a mean of 440 seconds and a standard deviation of 50 seconds. Find the probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 325 seconds.

6 dogs were sold. For every 10 cats that were sold, one dog was sold. If 60 cats were sold, that means 6 dogs were sold (60/10 = 6)...

0.0107 is the probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 325 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 440 seconds

Standard Deviation, σ = 50 seconds

We are given that the distribution of time is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(run the mile in less than 325 seconds)

P(x < 325)

$P( x < 325) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{325 - 440}{50}) = P(z < -2.3)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x < 325) = 0.0107 = 1.07\%$

0.0107 is the probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 325 seconds.
