Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 476 grams, standard deviation (σ) = 36 grams. P(z) = 19%

The z score shows by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by the equation:

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

Since the 19% weigh more, therefore 81% (100% - 19%) weigh less.

From the normal distribution table, the z score that corresponds to a probability of 81%(0.81) = 0.87

We substitute z = 0.88 in the z score equation to find the raw score. Therefore:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\0.87=\frac{x-476}{36}\\ x-476=31.32\\x=31.32+476\\x=507.32\\

x ≅ 507 grams

Therefore 19% of fruits weigh more than 507 grams
