Answer:

2.275%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do here is to calculate the z-score

Mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

from the question, x = 12,300 hours , mean = 11,500 hours while Standard deviation(SD) = 400 hours

Plugging the values we have;

z-score = (12,300-11,500)/400 = 800/400 = 2

Now, we want to calculate P(z ≤ 2)

This is so because we are calculating within a particular value

To calculate this, we use the z-score table.

Mathematically;

P(z ≤ 2) = 1 - P(z > 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275

To percentage = 2.275%

ale4655 [162]

Answer:Let the number be x, then (x - 9)^2 = x - 3

x^2 - 18x + 81 = x - 3

x^2 - 19x + 84 = 0

(x - 12)(x - 7) = 0

x = 12 or 7
