Answer:
20.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the mean (m) is equal to 87.5, the standard deviation (sd) 6.25 and the sample size (n) = 12
They ask us for P (x <86)
For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:
z = (x - m) / (sd / (n ^ 1/2))
We have all these values, replacing we have:
z = (86 - 87.5) / (6.25 / (12 ^ 1/2))
z = -0.83
With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:
P (z <-0.83) = 0.2033
The probability is 20.33%
