More than 2.5 years

The probability that a randomly selected person has owned their TV for more than 2.5 years is _____%

Can you show me how you got your answer?

Explanation / Answer

We need to find P(X>2.5)

Use NORM.DIST function in excel we get 0.003321

Since we need to find P(X>2.5), we do 1-0.003321=0.9966
