The percentage of runners that have times less than 14.4 seconds that is P(x<14.4) is 0.0013499 which is approximately = 0.15%.

<h2>What is standard deviation?</h2>

The standard deviation of a data set is defined as how the data is dispersed in relation to the mean.

From the question,

The raw time given (X) = 14.4 sec

The mean value(m) = 18sec

The standard deviation(d) = 1.2 sec

Using the formula,

z = X - m/ d

z= 14.4- 18/1.2

z = -3.6/1.2

z= -3

Using a Z table to find the percentage equivalent of P(x<14.4) is 0.0013499 which is approximately = 0.15%.

Therefore, the percentage of runners that have times less than 14.4 seconds that is P(x<14.4) is 0.0013499 which is approximately = 0.15%.
