Answer 1

Answer:

What is the probability that you will finish this quiz in 23.84 minutes or less?

0.03593

Write your answer as a percentage with 2 decimals

= 3.59%

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score formula is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

Mean = 26 minutes

Standard deviation = 1.2 minutes.

The probability that you will finish this quiz in 23.84 minutes or less(≤) is calculated as:

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = 23.84 - 26/1.2

z = -1.8

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x ≤ 23.84) = 0.03593

Converting to percentage

0.03593 × 100

= 3.593

Approximately to 2 decimal places = 3.59%
