Finding Sigma and Mu

How do I find the mean (μ) or the standard deviation (σ) if one of them is unknown?

STEP 4:?Solve?the equation

How do I find the mean (μ) and the standard deviation (σ) if both of them are unknown?

Worked Example

It is known that the times, in minutes, taken by students at a school to eat their lunch can be modelled using a normal distribution with mean μ minutes and standard deviation σ minutes.

Given that 10% of students at the school take less than 12 minutes to eat their lunch and 5% of the students take more than 40 minutes to eat their lunch, find the mean and standard deviation of the time taken by the students at the school.
