Answer:

The latest 2.5% of bills will be received in 20 more days after mail-out.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 31 days

Standard Deviation, σ = 6 days

We are given that the distribution of The number of days (X) is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(X \leq x) = 0.025

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.025

P(X \leq x) = 0.025

P( X \leq x) = P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 31}{6})=0.025  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P( z \leq -1.960) = 0.025

\displaystyle\frac{x - 31}{6} = -1.960\\x = 19.24 \approx 20  

Hence, the latest 2.5% of bills will be received in 20 more days after mail-out.
