Answer:

78.383%

Step-by-step explanation:

The pH of randomly selected swimming pools follows a normal distribution with mean 7.4 and standard deviation 0.22. A pool should have a pH between 7.2 and 7.8 so that chlorine treatment is effective.

Using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

For x = 7.2

z = 7.2 - 7.4/0.22

z = -0.90909

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 7.2) = 0.18165

For x = 7.8

z = 7.8 - 7.4/0.22

z = 1.81818

Probability alue from Z-Table:

P(x = 7.8) = 0.96548

The probability of pools having an acceptable pH level(7.2 and 7.8)

= P(x = 7.8) - P(x = 7.2)

= 0.96548 - 0.18165

= 0.78383

Converting to percentage

0.78383 × 100

= 78.383%

The percentage of pools having an acceptable pH level is 78.383%

Whats 41.803 rounded to the nearest whole number
kenny6666 [7]

41.803 is 42 rounded to the nearest whole number because when you go past .5 you round to the nearest highest number, but when your below .5 then you round to the nearest lowest number.
