A study of rush-hour traffic in San Francisco counts the number of people in each car entering a freeway at a suburban interchange. Suppose that this count has mean 1.6 and standard deviation 0.75 in the population of all cars that enter at this interchange during rush hour.

a. Without doing any calculations, explain which event is more likely:

• Randomly selecting 1 car entering this interchange during rush hour and finding 2 or more people in the car
• Randomly selecting 35 cars entering this interchange during rush hour and finding an average of 2 or more people in the cars

b. Explain why you cannot use a Normal distribution to calculate the probability of the first event in part (a).

c. Calculate the probability of the second event in part (a).
