Answer: 0.8461

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : \mu=144\ \ ; \sigma=392

Let x be the random variable that represents the cost for the hospital emergency room visit.

We assume that cost for the hospital emergency room visit is normally distributed .

z-score for x=1000 ,

z=\dfrac{1000-1400}{392}\approx-1.02\ \ \ [\because z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]

Using z-value table , we have

P-value =P(x>1000)=P(z>-1.02)=1-P(z≤ -1.02)=1-0.1538642

=0.8461358≈0.8461  [Rounded nearest 4 decimal places]

Hence, the probability that the cost will be more than $1000 = 0.8461
