Answer:

The probability is 0.9938

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the probability that the mean blood pressure readings of a group of people is less than a certain reading.

To calculate this, we use the z score.

Mathematically;

z = (mean - value)/(standard deviation/√N)

From the question, we can identify that the mean is 125, the value is 123 , the standard deviation is 9.6 and N ( total population is 144)

Let’s plug these values;

z = (125-123)/(9.6/√144) = 2.5

Now we proceed to calculate the probability with a s score less than 2.5 using statistical tables

P(z<2.5) = 0.9938
