The heights of the trees in a forest are normally distributed, with a mean of 25 meters and a standard deviation of 6 meters. Wh

Alla [95]

Answer:

2.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to convert x into z distribution is

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Where z is the test statistic

x is what we are looking for (in this case 37)

$\mu$ is the mean (in this case, it is 25)

$\sigma$ is the standard deviation (we have 6)

<em>Plugging these into the formula, we get:</em>

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\z=\frac{37-25}{6}\\z=2$

Thus we can say we want $P(z\geq 2)$

<u>Note: </u> $P(z\geq a)=1-P(z\leq a)$

The table given is for any z where $P(z\leq a)$

Thus, now we have:

$P(z\geq 2)\\=1-P(z\leq 2)\\=1-0.9772\\=0.0228\\$

0.0228 into percentage is 0.0228 * 100 = 2.28%

Rounded, we get 2.3%

Third answer choice is right.
