QUESTION:

Because everyone is always driving above the speed limit, the police implement a new policy: ticket anyone who drives 1.5 standard deviations above the average.  

  • At a major freeway, the average speed in the evening is 75 MPH.  The standard deviation is 7 MPH. Michael finds himself driving at 84 MPH during an evening on this freeway.  
  • At a major street, the average speed is 43 MPH.  The standard deviation is 4 MPH. Nico finds himself driving at 50 MPH.

Use the information above to determine who will get a speeding ticket?
