Answer:

The  value is  P(A) =  0.133617

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  mean is  \mu =  7.5

  The standard deviation is  \sigma  =  0.2

  The safest water level is  between  7.2 and  7.8

Generally the probability that the selected pool has a pH level that is not considered safe is mathematically represented as

       P(A) =  1 - P(7.2 \le X  \le 7.8 )

Here  

      P(7.2 < X  < 7.8 ) = P(\frac{ 7.2 - \mu }{\sigma } <  \frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma }

Generally \frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value  \  of  X )

So

 P(7.2 < X  < 7.8 ) = P(\frac{ 7.2 - 7.5 }{0.2 } < Z    

 P(7.2 < X  < 7.8 ) = P(-1.5 < Z  

=>  P(7.2 < X  < 7.8 ) = P(Z <  1.5) - P(  Z < - 1.5)

From the z-table the probability of  (Z <  -1.5) and   (  Z <1.5)  are

    P(Z <  1.5) =  0.93319

and  

    P(Z <  -1.5) =  0.066807

So

      P(7.2 < X  < 7.8 ) =0.93319 - 0.066807

       P(7.2 < X  < 7.8 ) =0.0866383

So

   P(A) =  1 - 0.0866383

=>  P(A) =  0.133617

Answer:

I think it may be D

Step-by-step explanation:

A coefficient is the number being multiplied by the variable. A variable is a letter that holds an number like  w x 7=?  W=6. And a constant is the number by itself. In this expression 5000 is the constant 20 is the coefficient and teh variable is w so I think it is D
