The answer is: thyroid hormone.

Explanation:

  • Thyroid hormone is primarily responsible for regulating the body's basal metabolic rate (BMR). It increases the rate at which the body uses energy while at rest, influencing how quickly calories are burned.
  • Other hormones, such as insulin or cortisol, have different primary functions and do not primarily affect the basal metabolic rate in the same way as thyroid hormone.
  • Thyroid hormone's role in metabolism is well-documented, making it the correct choice for this question.

Your company has a contract to perform preventive maintenance on thousands of air-conditioning units in a large city. Based on service records from the past year, the time (in hours) that a technician requires to complete the work follows a strongly right-skewed distribution with μ=1 hour and σ=1.5 hours. As a promotion, your company will provide service to a random sample of 70 air-conditioning units free of charge. You plan to budget an average of 1.1 hours per unit for a technician to complete the work. Will this be enough time? Calculate the probability that the average maintenance time x̄ for 70 randomly selected units exceeds 1.1 hours.
