As the mean is E[X] =150 and \sigma = 30, using the normal distribution to get the answer is just using Z. So, what we need is P(X<180). 

Z=  \frac{x-E[X]}{\sigma } = \frac{180-150}{30} =  \frac{30}{30} = 1

P(x<180) = P(z< 1) = \phi(1) = 0.8413. 

Then, just multiplying the amount of books you have, which is 500, with the probability would give how many books are less than 180 pages, being:
0.8413 * 500 = 420.65

What is the solution to this equation x -9=5​
lukranit [14]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

x- 9 = 5

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 9 to both sides of the equation:

x - 9 (+9) = 5 (+9)

x = 5 + 9

x = 14

x = 14 is your answer.
