you can put both sides of the equation to the 4th power
![( \sqrt[4]{d - 15}) ^{4} = (2)^{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bd%20-%2015%7D%29%20%5E%7B4%7D%20%20%20%3D%20%282%29%5E%7B4%7D%20)


Answer:
This indicates that the chances of the mean life span today is greater than 70 years is 0.5871
Step-by-step explanation:
The past year showed an average life span of 71.8 years.

Population standard deviation = 8.9 years

We are supposed to find the mean life span today is greater than 70 years
i.e. P(X>70)
Formula : 

Z=−0.202
P(X<70)=0.4129
P(X>70)=1-P(X<70)=1-0.4129=0.5871
Hence This indicates that the chances of the mean life span today is greater than 70 years is 0.5871
