Answer:

(a) z=-0.59

(b) Joe will invest in Mean Corporation. The probability of getting an annual return grater than 11% is 72.3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal distribution for the annual return of the stock.

This distribution has mean of 13.9% and s.d. of 4.9%.

If X=11%, we can calculate its corresponding z-value as:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}= \frac{0.11-0.139}{0.049}= -0.5918

The z-value is z=-0.5918.

The probabilty of P(X>11%)=P(y>-0.5918) is, by the standarized normal distribution table, equal to 0.723.

As its P(y>-0.5918)=P(X>11%)=0.723 bigger than the 70% threshold, Joe will invest in Mean Corporation.
