The approximate probability that the weight of a randomly-selected car passing over the bridge is more than 4,000 pounds is 69%
Option C is the correct answer.
<h3>What is Probability ?</h3>
Probability is defined as the study of likeliness of an event to happen.
It has a range of 0 to 1.
It is given in the question that
The weights of cars passing over a bridge have a mean of 3,550 pounds and standard deviation of 870 pounds.
mean = 3550
standard deviation, = 870
Observed value, X = 4000
Z = (X-mean)/standard deviation = (4000-3550)/870 = 0.517
Probability of weight above 4000 lb
= P(X>4000) = P(z>Z) = P(z> 0.517) = 0.6985
The approximate probability that the weight of a randomly-selected car passing over the bridge is more than 4,000 pounds is 69%
