Answer:

1,570,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is approximately ...

1,260,000 +310,000 = 1,570,000

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

It is a good idea to estimate the error associated with an estimate. Here, both numbers are rounded up by about 4000 each, so the estimate is around 8000 high.

You need to know the distribution's mean and standard deviation.

$\mathbb P(X>100)=0.20\implies\mathbb P(X\le100)=0.80$

Transforming to the standard normal distribution, and letting $\sigma$ denote the standard deviation,

$\mathbb P(X\le100)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{X-86}\sigma\le\dfrac{100-86}\sigma\right)=0.80$

The z-score corresponding to this probability is approximately $z=0.8416$ , so you have

$\dfrac{100-86}\sigma=0.8416\implies\sigma=16.64$
