Answer:

D)

Step-by-step explanation:

ASSUMING NORMAL DISTRIBUTION, LESS THAN 10% AT LOWER END

OF 15.34 MEANS     [DENOTING MEAN BY M AND Standard Deviation. BY S]

M±AS=20%....................M-AS=15.34

FOR 20% LEVEL .......A=1.281........FROM TABLES

M-1.281×S=15.34............................1

SIMILARLY

M±BS=40%...................M+BS=16.31

FOR 40% LEVEL .............B=0.841...................FROM TABLES

M+0.841×S=16.31.............................2

EQN.2 - EQN.1

2.122×S=0.97

S=0.457=0.46

M=15.926= 15.93

HENCE, D IS THE ANSWER

that is D. μ = 15.93, σ =.46
