Installing a muffler at Barut Garage, Inc. involves a five work tasks. Azra has timed workers performing these tasks seven times, with the results (in minutes) shown in the following table.
| No | Tasks | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | PR |
| 1 | Select correct mufflers | 5 | 4 | 6 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 120 |
| 2 | Remove old muffler | 8 | 8 | 8 | 6 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 85 |
| 3 | Install new muffler | 15 | 13 | 15 | 14 | 12 | 15 | 13 | 85 |
| 4 | Inspect the work | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 110 |
| 5 | Complete paperwork | 9 | 8 | 9 | 8 | 10 | 7 | 10 | 110 |
Given that Azra does not want an error of more than 0.07 and a confidence level less than 0.85 answer the following: Provide the z-score: Round to the nearest hundredth, for example 4.22 Does the number of observations for the following tasks warrant such confidence level? Enter YES or NO. Task # 3 Install new muffler : Task # 5 Complete paperwork : What are the required numbers of observations for these tasks? Enter the number. Task # 3 Install new muffler : Task # 5 Complete paperwork : Assume that the number of observations for the following tasks justifies the confidence level and accuracy mentioned above. Also note that Azra factors in a total of fatigue and personal allowance of 0.15 applied to job time. Provide the following results from your solution:
| Task | Normal Time* | Standard Time* |
| # 2 Remove old muffler | min | min |
| # 4 Inspect the work | min | min |
Provide the total standard time* for the whole job: minutes. *Round to the nearest hundredth, for example 8.45 minutes
