Sоme believe thаt Cаptаin America can run the fastest mile оf any persоn alive. In order to test this theory, Captain America decided to run the mile multiple times and record how long it took him (in seconds) to run each one. He decided to attempt running the mile 40 times and determine his average mile time. Let's assume his true mean mile time was 138 seconds with a standard deviation of 16 seconds. Use this information to find the following probability. What is the probability that his average mile time would be at least 136 seconds? Make sure to round your final answer to 3 decimal places. For example, if you thought the answer was 0.123456 then you would type in 0.123.
QUESTION 1 - 5 Pоints Celebrаtiоn Wedding Plаnners ("CWP") entered intо а contract with Laura and Jim to plan their wedding. CWP agreed to handle all planning for Laura and Jim’s wedding, to make sure all invitations were sent out, to reserve the location for the wedding and the reception, to reserve the photographer, caterers, and cake maker. Laura and Jim agreed to pay CWP the price of $18,000. Laura and Jim were very busy and allowed CWP to handle all aspects of the planning without much oversight. As the day of the wedding approached, Laura and Jim began to realize that things were not going as planned. The cake maker they had chosen with CWP indicated that they had never actually been contacted to make the cake, the caterer had the wrong meal selections, and certain invitations had failed to go to the correct addresses. Laura and Jim were very upset. The wedding actually occurred, in large part because Laura and Jim scrambled to fix CWP’s mistakes. After the wedding CWP sent Laura and Jim an invoice for $18,000. Laura immediately sent an email to CWP which stated: “You almost ruined our day. We hired you to handle everything and you missed several important details. We had to spend extra to get the cake made and had to call many close friends and relatives to see if they could make it at the last minute. Now you claim that we still owed you $18,000. No way are we paying that amount.” CWP responded that it expected payment of $18,000 within ten days or it would sue. CWP claimed that it was Laura and Jim’s failure to assist that really caused the mistakes. The parties engaged in several heated conversations over the next week. Finally, Laura and Jim sent payment in the amount of $10,000 to CWP with a note that stated: This is all you will get from us. Sue us if you want.” CWP deposited the $10,000 payment into its bank account and, six months later, sued Laura and Jim demanding an additional $8,000. REQUIRED (6 Points): Will CWP prevail? Discuss.
