A negative number inside of | | will become positive when taken out of it.

|-15| = 15
|-26| = 26

15 + 26 = 41

"the placement test for a college has scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 600 and a standard deviation of 60.if

Tanzania [10]

The cutoff will be evaluated as follows:
let the cutoff be x

but
P(x>0.01)=1-P(x<0.01)=1-0.01=0.99
the z value corresponding to 0.99% is z=2.33
thus
2.33=(x-600)/60
solving for x we get:
139.8=x-600
x=739.8
