Question
Suppose that the average waiting time for a patient at a physician's office is just over 29 minutes. In order to address the issue of long patient wait times, some physicians' offices are using wait-tracking systems to notify patients of expected wait times. Patients can adjust their arrival times based on this information and spend less time in waiting rooms. The following data show wait times (minutes) for a sample of patients at offices that do not have a wait-tracking system and wait times for a sample of patients at offices with a wait-tracking system.

Suppose that the national average for the math portion of the College Board's SAT is 512. The College Board periodically rescales the test scores such that the standard deviation is approximately 75. Answer the following questions using a bell-shaped distribution and the empirical rule for the math test scores.
If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

c) Cumulative Frequency Distribution:
= Cumulative frequency is the sum of frequency of particular class plus frequency of all previous classes.
d) Relative Cumulative Frequency Distribution
= (Cumulative Frequency / Total Size) * 100
