Answer:
12.1%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Mean (μ) = 20.2 grams and standard deviation (σ) = 0.18 grams.
The z score is a score used to determine the number of standard deviations by which the raw score is above or below the mean. A positive z score means that the raw score is above the mean and a negative z score means that the raw score is below the mean. It is given by:
a) For x < 19.99 g:
From the normal distribution table, P(x < 19.99) = P(z < -1.17) = 0.1210 = 12.1%
The probability that a randomly chosen mouse has a mass of less than 19.99 grams is 12.1%
