A tire manufacturer designed a new tread pattern for its all-weather tires. Repeated tests were conducted on cars of approximately the same weight traveling at 60 miles per hour. The tests showed that the new tread pattern enables the cars to stop completely in an average distance of 125 feet with a standard deviation of 6.5 feet, and that the stopping distances are approximately normally distributed. Use the Normal Probability Calculator applet (refer to Section 5.7 of your zyBook) to find the probability that one randomly selected car in the study will stop completely in a distance that is greater than 135 feet. 0.9380 0.0620 0.124 1.538
