Answer: the cutoff score to get into the class is 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scores on the test are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = scores on the test.

µ = mean score

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 38

σ = 6

The probability value for the 80th percentile is 80/100 = 0.8

Looking at the normal distribution table, the z score corresponding to the probability value is 0.85

Therefore,

0.85 = (x - 38)/6

Cross multiplying by 6, it becomes

0.85 × 6 = x - 38

5.1 = x - 38

x = 5.1 + 38

x = 43.1

Approximately 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the smallest is called "a"

We can re-write the question like this:

a+(a+1)+(a+2)+(a+3) = 174

4a+6=174

4a=168

a=42

look next to the 6. Since it is less than 5, you do nothing to the 16 part and turn the rest to 0's.
