A radio station claims that the amount of advertising per hour of broadcast time has an average of 17 minutes and a standard deviation equal to 2.7 minutes. You listen to the radio station for 1 hour, at a randomly selected time, and carefully observe that the amount of advertising time is equal to 11 minutes. Calculate the z–score for this amount of advertising time.
