There are 40 students in an elementary statistics class. On the basis of years of experience, the instructor knows that the time needed to grade a randomly chosen first examination paper is a random variable with an expected value of 6 min and a standard deviation of 6 min.
a. If grading times are independent and the instructor begins grading at 6:50 P.M. and grades continuously, what is the (approximate) probability that he is through grading before the 11:00 P.M. TV news begins?
b. If the sports report begins at 11:10, what is the probability that he misses part of the report if he waits until grading is done before turning on the TV?
