John Beale of Stanford, CA, recorded the speeds of cars driving past his house, where the speed limit read 20 mph. The mean of 100 readings was 23.84 mph, with a standard deviation of 3.56 mph. (He actually recorded every car for a two-month period. These are 100 representative readings.)
a) How many standard deviations from the mean would a car going under the speed limit be?
b) Which would be more unusual, a car traveling 34 mph or one going 10 mph?
