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.

klasskru [66]
Easy, showing work,

using the method FOIL (First,Outer,Inner, Last)

Take, (x+3)(x+5) and multiply,

First,

x*x=x^{2}

Outer,

x*5=5x

Inner,

3*x=3x

Last,

3*5=15

Add the terms together,

x^{2}+8x+15   (x^{2}+5x+3x+15)

Thus, your answer.
