If you intended to say that the MEAN hours worked per week were 43.9, and if we ASSUME that the hours worked per week are normally distributed then this question can be answered. The z score which 1/3 area is to the left is z= -.435 (40-43.9)/-.435 = 8.965 hours In real life, I doubt this would follow a normal distribution. I'd expect to se something bimodal. A group that works over-time and a group that does not. |
